This doesn't look very idiomatic, with assert() and __int__ etc. Please don't try to learn Go from this. Edit: to be a little more constructive, do the Go tour instead.

I wondered the same thing. Noise in the picture should also make it extremely hard to predict. For cryptographic use one would only need 256 bits of entropy to seed a CPRNG, and I can't see how this amount of entropy wouldn't be p

If you have a bug in another application on the server running the cache that causes it to grow its memory use, your cache would suddenly disappear/underperform, and the failure could cascade on to the system that the cache is in front

Values that must expire could perhaps use a truncated time value as part of the key? It's not as flexible as regular expiration, because the entries would only expire when you cross the point in time where the truncated time value chan

I want to use this, but since the keys are immutable, how can I store data like sessions which can change and would sometimes have to be invalidated from the server side (i.e. you can't simply change the session ID in the cookie and us
