Design principle?

• LRU elimination algorithm
• Use singleflight to avoid cache pinging
• Support custom load method
• Support cache change listener

	"golang.org/x/sync/singleflight"
	"github.com/wang1309/gcache"
)

const maxItems = 100

func main() {
	// create cache object
	c := cache.NewCache(loader, maxItems)
}
