Why Measure a Cache?
A cache only helps if it serves enough requests to beat its cost. Without measurement, you cannot tell a useful cache from wasted memory.
Hits and Misses
A hit is served from the cache; a miss requires fetching from the slow source. Counting both is the foundation of every cache metric.
hits = 0
misses = 0
store = {'a': 1}
for key in ['a', 'b', 'a']:
if key in store:
hits += 1
else:
misses += 1
print('hits', hits, 'misses', misses)The Hit Ratio
The hit ratio is hits over total requests — the single most important cache metric. A higher ratio means the cache absorbs more of your load.
hits = 80
misses = 20
ratio = hits / (hits + misses) * 100
print('Hit ratio:', ratio, '%')What Is a Good Ratio?
There is no universal target hit ratio: a read-heavy catalog may hit 95%, a personalized feed only 50%. Judge it against the cost saved.
Miss Penalty
The miss penalty is how much slower a miss is than a hit. Even a modest hit ratio is valuable when each miss is extremely expensive.
hit_ms = 1
miss_ms = 120
print('Miss penalty:', miss_ms - hit_ms, 'ms')Effective Average Latency
Combine hit ratio and miss penalty into the expected average latency per request: ratio times hit, plus (1 minus ratio) times miss.
ratio = 0.8
hit_ms = 1
miss_ms = 120
avg = ratio * hit_ms + (1 - ratio) * miss_ms
print('Average latency:', round(avg, 2), 'ms')Throughput and Load Reduction
A cache also cuts origin load: 80% hits means the database handles only 20% of traffic. Track origin queries-per-second before and after caching.
Eviction and Memory Metrics
Watch eviction count and memory. A high eviction rate means the cache is too small — entries get pushed out before reuse, dragging down the hit ratio.
Stale-Serve and TTL Effects
TTL is a trade-off: short TTLs lower the hit ratio but improve freshness; long ones do the reverse. Measure both hit ratio and stale-read rate to tune it.
Cold vs Warm Cache
A fresh cache is cold with a near-zero hit ratio, then warms as it fills. Judge effectiveness at steady state, not during the cold-start window.
Acting on the Metrics
Let metrics drive tuning: low hit ratio with high evictions means grow the cache; high hit ratio with stale complaints means shorten the TTL.
Quick Check
Your cache has a 55% hit ratio, which sounds low. When is this cache still clearly worth keeping?
Recap
You learned to measure cache effectiveness: hit ratio is the headline read with miss penalty, combine into average latency, watch evictions and stale reads, act on the numbers.
