 Cache - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer science, a cache (pronounced "cash") is a collection of data duplicating original values stored elsewhere or computed earlier, where the original data is expensive (usually in terms of access time) to fetch or compute relative to reading the cache.
Caches have proven extremely effective in many areas of computing because access patterns in typical computer applications have locality of reference.
In this sense, the phrases disk cache and cache buffer are misnomers, and the embedded computer's memory is more appropriately called the disk buffer.

 cache definition of cache in computing dictionary - by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.
Following are descriptions of the traditional memory and disk caches that are common in all computers.
A disk cache is a section of main memory or memory on the disk controller board that bridges the disk and the CPU.
Browser caches and Internet caches store copies of Web pages retrieved by the user for some period of time in order to speed up retrieval the next time the page is requested (see Web cache and browser cache).

 What is cache? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
Two types of caching are commonly used in personal computers: memory caching and disk caching.
Disk caching can dramatically improve the performance of applications, because accessing a byte of data in RAM can be thousands of times faster than accessing a byte on a hard disk.
The strategies for determining which information should be kept in the cache constitute some of the more interesting problems in computer science.

 cache - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about cache
Read cache is used to store copies of data and instructions that are retrieved from main memory or mass storage.
In other cases, the memory cache is normal DRAM, but is used to store frequently used instructions and data that would normally be accessed from backing storage.
The data is subsequently moved to its permanent location by the cache controller, a process that takes more time because main memory and mass storage devices are much slower to access than cache memory.

 Define cache - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: cached
A disk cache (either a reserved area of RAM or a special hard disk cache) where a copy of the most recently accessed data and adjacent (most likely to be accessed) data is stored for fast access.
Computers include caches at several levels of operation, including cache memory and a disk cache.
L2 cache memory, which is on a separate chip from the microprocessor but faster to access than regular RAM.

 FAQ of Caching Mechanism
Depending upon the cache restrictions on the cache item, it will be added either to the disk or to the memory cache.
When the cache has been operational for a while, and the amount of available space for a new item becomes insufficient, the cache deletes approximately 10% of its size to make space for the item.
In general, documents are stored preferentially in disk cache and not memory.

 Caching Tutorial for Web Authors and Webmasters
Some caches do allow their administrators to prioritize what kinds of representations are kept, and some allow representations to be “pinned” in cache, so that they’re always available.
Proxy caches are a type of shared cache; rather than just having one person using them, they usually have a large number of users, and because of this they are very good at reducing latency and network traffic.
CDNs are an interesting development, because unlike many proxy caches, their gateway caches are aligned with the interests of the Web site being cached, so that these problems aren’t seen.

 Web Cache Reference @ InternetNavigator.com (Internet Navigator)
Server-side caches, also known as reverse-caches and web accelerators, are placed in front of origin servers to reduce their load.
HTTP has a relatively complicated set of features that user agents and origin servers can use to control whether or not documents are stored in a cache, and when cached copies may be reused.
If multiple cache servers are used together, these may coordinate using protocols like the Internet Cache Protocol and HTCP.

 HTTP/1.1: Header Field Definitions
A stale cache entry may not normally be returned by a cache (either a proxy cache or a user agent cache) unless it is first validated with the origin server (or with an intermediate cache that has a fresh copy of the entity).
If a cache returns a stale response, either because of a max-stale directive on a request, or because the cache is configured to override the expiration time of a response, the cache MUST attach a Warning header to the stale response, using Warning 110 (Response is stale).
When an intermediate cache is forced, by means of a max-age=0 directive, to revalidate its own cache entry, and the client has supplied its own validator in the request, the supplied validator might differ from the validator currently stored with the cache entry.

 Ricardo Galli, de software libre » WP-Cache 2.0
Remember that the cache is created on demand, so the first time you load a page it’ll be generated from the database.
It works by caching Worpress pages and storing them in a static file for serving future requests directly from the file rather than loading and compiling the whole PHP code and then building the page from the database.
WP-Cache is writing cache files (which I’ve verified by viewing the contents of cache directory), but apparently not reading them.

 cache - Glossary - CNET.com
Caches come in many types, but they all work the same way: they store information where you can get to it fast.
A Web browser cache stores the pages, graphics, sounds, and URLs of online places you visit on your hard drive; that way, when you go back to the page, everything doesn't have to be downloaded all over again.
Of course, disk access is slower than RAM access, so there's also disk caching, which stores information you might need from your hard disk in faster RAM.
