6.5statcache -- An optimization ofos.stat()

Thestatcache module provides a simple optimization toos.stat(): remembering the values of previous invocations.

Thestatcache module defines the following functions:

stat(path)

This is the main module entry-point.Identical foros.stat(), except for remembering the resultfor future invocations of the function.

The rest of the functions are used to clear the cache, or parts ofit.

reset()

Clear the cache: forget all results of previousstat()calls.

forget(path)

Forget the result ofstat(path), if any.

forget_prefix(prefix)

Forget all results ofstat(path) forpath startingwithprefix.

forget_dir(prefix)

Forget all results ofstat(path) forpath a file in the directoryprefix, includingstat(prefix).

forget_except_prefix(prefix)

Similar toforget_prefix(), but for allpath valuesnot starting withprefix.

Example:

>>> import os, statcache>>> statcache.stat('.')(16893, 2049, 772, 18, 1000, 1000, 2048, 929609777, 929609777, 929609777)>>> os.stat('.')(16893, 2049, 772, 18, 1000, 1000, 2048, 929609777, 929609777, 929609777)
