NAME
       Cache::Memory - Memory based implementation of the Cache interface

SYNOPSIS
         use Cache::Memory;

         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );

       See Cache for the usage synopsis.

DESCRIPTION
       The Cache::Memory class implements the Cache interface.  This cache
       stores data on a per-process basis.  This is the fastest of the cache
       implementations, but is memory intensive and data can not be shared
       between processes.  It also does not persist after the process dies.
       However data will remain in the cache until cleared or it expires.  The
       data will be shared between instances of the cache object, a cache
       object going out of scope will not destroy the data.

CONSTRUCTOR
         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( %options )

       The constructor takes cache properties as named arguments, for example:

         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );

       See 'PROPERTIES' below and in the Cache documentation for a list of all
       available properties that can be set.

METHODS
       See 'Cache' for the API documentation.

PROPERTIES
       Cache::Memory adds the property 'namespace', which allows you to
       specify a different caching store area to use from the default.  All
       methods will work ONLY on the namespace specified.

        my $ns = $c->namespace();
        $c->set_namespace( $namespace );

       For additional properties, see the 'Cache' documentation.
