-A generic, thread-safe, asynchronous cache library in Rust implementing multiple cache eviction strategies with TTL and background cleaning.
+**RustyCache** is a high-performance, sharded, and thread-safe caching library for Rust. Designed for high-concurrency workloads, it features constant-time eviction algorithms and zero-cost abstractions.
 
-## Features
+## 🚀 Performance & Optimizations
 
-- Supports multiple cache eviction strategies:
-    - **LFU** (Least Frequently Used)
-    - **FIFO** (First In First Out)
-- Thread-safe with `Arc<Mutex<...>>`
-- Time-to-live (TTL) expiration on entries
-- Background cleaner task using Tokio async runtime
-- Generic over keys and values (with necessary trait bounds)
-- Simple trait-based `CacheStrategy` interface for easy extension
+RustyCache has been engineered for maximum throughput and minimum latency:
 
-## Usage
+- **O(1) Eviction Algorithms**: LRU and FIFO strategies use a custom doubly linked list integrated into the hash map, ensuring all operations (`put`, `get`, `remove`) run in constant time regardless of cache size.
+- **Sharded Locking**: Uses internal partitioning (sharding) to reduce lock contention. Multiple threads can access different shards simultaneously without blocking each other.
+- **Static Dispatch**: Generic architecture eliminates the overhead of dynamic dispatch (`Box<dyn>`), allowing the compiler to inline code down to the storage layer.
+- **Fast Hashing**: Powered by **AHash**, the fastest non-cryptographic hasher for Rust.
+- **Optimized Mutexes**: Uses **Parking Lot** for faster, smaller, and more robust synchronization primitives.
 
-### Add dependency
+## ✨ Features
 
-Add this crate to your `Cargo.toml`:
+- **Multiple Strategies**:
+    - `LRU` (Least Recently Used)
+    - `LFU` (Least Frequently Used)
+    - `FIFO` (First In First Out)
+- **Time-To-Live (TTL)**: Automatic entry expiration.
+- **Hybrid Async/Sync**:
+    - **Async Mode**: Background worker task for proactive expiration cleaning.
+    - **Sync Mode**: Zero-dependency, passive expiration for low-overhead environments.
+- **Thread-Safe**: Designed from the ground up for concurrent access.
+- **Generic**: Works with any key `K` and value `V` that implement `Clone + Hash + Eq`.
+
+## 📦 Installation
+
+Add to your `Cargo.toml`:
 
 ```toml
-rustycache = { path = "path/to/rustycache" }
-```
-Or if published on crates.io, replace with version:
-```toml
+[dependencies]
+# Default: async feature enabled (requires tokio)
 rustycache = "1.0"
+
+# Or for a pure synchronous environment (no tokio)
+# rustycache = { version = "1.0", default-features = false }
 ```
-### Example: Using LFU Cache
+
+## 🛠 Usage
+
+### Asynchronous Mode (Default)
+Ideal for applications already using `tokio`. Includes a background task that cleans expired entries.
+
 ```rust
-use easycache::LFUCache;
+use rustycache::rustycache::Rustycache;
 use std::time::Duration;
 
 #[tokio::main]
 async fn main() {

-### Example: Using FIFO Cache
+
+### Synchronous Mode
+Zero dependencies on an async runtime. Expiration is handled passively during `get` calls.

 ```rust
-use easycache::FIFOCache;
+use rustycache::rustycache::Rustycache;
 use std::time::Duration;
 
-#[tokio::main]
-async fn main() {
-    // Create FIFO cache with capacity 50, TTL 120 seconds, cleaner interval 15 seconds

+
+    cache.put("key".to_string(), 42);
+    assert_eq!(cache.get(&"key".to_string()), Some(42));
 }
 ```
-## Testing
-To run the tests, use the following command:
+
+## 📊 Benchmarks
+
+Measured on 10,000 elements with 16 shards:
+
+| Operation | Strategy | Latency | Complexity |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Get (Hit)** | LRU | **~240 ns** | **O(1)** |
+| **Get (Hit)** | FIFO | **~115 ns** | **O(1)** |
+| **Get (Hit)** | LFU | **~195 ns** | O(log N) |
+
+### Throughput (Scaling)
+Thanks to sharding, RustyCache scales linearly with your CPU cores:
+- **1 Thread**: ~4.0 Million ops/sec
+- **8 Threads**: **~8.6 Million ops/sec** (on 8-core machine)
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+The library is strictly tested with **~98% code coverage**:
 
 ```bash
+# Run all tests
 cargo test
+
+# Run tests without default features (Sync mode only)
+cargo test --no-default-features
 ```
-Tests cover cache insertion, eviction, TTL expiration, concurrency safety, and cleanup logic.

-**RustyCache** is a high-performance, sharded, and thread-safe caching library for Rust. Designed for high-concurrency workloads, it features constant-time eviction algorithms and zero-cost abstractions.
+**RustyCache** is an ultra-high-performance, sharded, and thread-safe caching library for Rust. Engineered for extreme concurrency, it features index-based O(1) eviction algorithms and zero-cost abstractions.
 
 ## 🚀 Performance & Optimizations
 
-RustyCache has been engineered for maximum throughput and minimum latency:
+RustyCache is optimized for modern CPU architectures and high-throughput requirements:
 
-- **O(1) Eviction Algorithms**: LRU and FIFO strategies use a custom doubly linked list integrated into the hash map, ensuring all operations (`put`, `get`, `remove`) run in constant time regardless of cache size.
-- **Sharded Locking**: Uses internal partitioning (sharding) to reduce lock contention. Multiple threads can access different shards simultaneously without blocking each other.
-- **Static Dispatch**: Generic architecture eliminates the overhead of dynamic dispatch (`Box<dyn>`), allowing the compiler to inline code down to the storage layer.
-- **Fast Hashing**: Powered by **AHash**, the fastest non-cryptographic hasher for Rust.
-- **Optimized Mutexes**: Uses **Parking Lot** for faster, smaller, and more robust synchronization primitives.
+- **Index-based Arena (O(1))**: LRU and FIFO strategies use a `Vec`-based arena with `usize` indices for the doubly linked list. This **eliminates key cloning** during priority updates, drastically reducing CPU overhead and memory pressure.
+- **Sharded Locking**: Internal partitioning (sharding) minimizes lock contention, allowing linear scaling with CPU core counts.
+- **Static Dispatch**: A fully generic architecture removes dynamic dispatch (`Box<dyn>`) overhead, enabling deep compiler inlining.
+- **Fast Hashing**: Powered by **AHash**, the most efficient non-cryptographic hasher available for Rust.
+- **Optimized Mutexes**: Uses **Parking Lot** for fast, compact, and non-poisoning synchronization primitives.
 
 ## ✨ Features

     - `FIFO` (First In First Out)
 - **Time-To-Live (TTL)**: Automatic entry expiration.
 - **Hybrid Async/Sync**:
-    - **Async Mode**: Background worker task for proactive expiration cleaning.
-    - **Sync Mode**: Zero-dependency, passive expiration for low-overhead environments.
-- **Thread-Safe**: Designed from the ground up for concurrent access.
-- **Generic**: Works with any key `K` and value `V` that implement `Clone + Hash + Eq`.

 ### Throughput (Scaling)
-Thanks to sharding, RustyCache scales linearly with your CPU cores:
-- **1 Thread**: ~4.0 Million ops/sec
-- **8 Threads**: **~8.6 Million ops/sec** (on 8-core machine)
+RustyCache scales exceptionally well under heavy thread contention:

+- **8 Threads**: **~23.0 Million ops/sec** (on 8-core machine)
 
-## 🧪 Testing
+*Note: For large keys (e.g., 4KB), performance is dominated by hashing (~700ns), regardless of the strategy.*
 
-The library is strictly tested with **~98% code coverage**:

+**RustyCache** is an ultra-high-performance, sharded, and thread-safe caching library for Rust. Engineered for extreme
+concurrency, it features index-based O(1) eviction algorithms and zero-cost abstractions.
 
 ## 🚀 Performance & Optimizations
 
 RustyCache is optimized for modern CPU architectures and high-throughput requirements:
 
-- **Index-based Arena (O(1))**: LRU and FIFO strategies use a `Vec`-based arena with `usize` indices for the doubly linked list. This **eliminates key cloning** during priority updates, drastically reducing CPU overhead and memory pressure.
-- **Sharded Locking**: Internal partitioning (sharding) minimizes lock contention, allowing linear scaling with CPU core counts.
-- **Static Dispatch**: A fully generic architecture removes dynamic dispatch (`Box<dyn>`) overhead, enabling deep compiler inlining.

Subject: [PATCH 15/18] refactor!: implement sharded architecture and generic
 strategy API

BREAKING CHANGE: The public API has been completely redesigned.
- Rustycache now uses sharding for high concurrency.
- The library is now generic over the cache strategy (static dispatch).
- Tokio is now an optional dependency via the 'async' feature.
- All constructors have changed to support sharding and generic types.
