> SOLR-2906 introduced an LFU cache and in-progress SOLR-3393 makes it O(1). 
> The discussions seem to indicate that the higher hit rate (vs LRU) is offset 
> by the slower performance of the implementation. An original goal appeared to 
> be to introduce ARC, a patented algorithm that uses ghost entries to retain 
> history information.
> My analysis of Window TinyLfu indicates that it may be a better option. It 
> uses a frequency sketch to compactly estimate an entry's popularity. It uses 
> LRU to capture recency and operate in O(1) time. When using available 
> academic traces the policy provides a near optimal hit rate regardless of the 
> workload.
> I'm getting ready to release the policy in Caffeine, which Solr already has a 
> dependency on. But, the code is fairly straightforward and a port into Solr's 
> caches instead is a pragmatic alternative. More interesting is what the 
> impact would be in Solr's workloads and feedback on the policy's design.
