  Description     : A lightweight but robust filesystem based persistent LRU cache

 Provides a persistent filesystem based LRU cache.
 .
 It uses the 'last accessed' timestamp generated by the file system
 to determine the 'oldest' cache entry and discards the oldest
 cache entries when needed to stay under the -keep_last limit.
 .
 If you store thing very fast (such that many entries receive the
 _same_ time stamp), it is essentially a coin toss which entry
 within a single timestamped second gets purged from the cache
 to make room for new ones.
