Caffeine is a high-performance Java caching library that uses advanced eviction policies and data structures. It employs a Window TinyLFU policy, frequency sketches, and hierarchical timer wheels to optimize cache hit rates and efficiently manage expiration. These techniques allow Caffeine to outperform traditional LRU caches in many scenarios.
