Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Adaptive Smart Cache Algorithm - Intelligent cache with 23-31% DB query reduction

Readme

ASCA Cache SDK

Adaptive Smart Cache Algorithm for TypeScript, with built-in integrations for TanStack Query and Nitro.

ASCA uses adaptive TTL, multi-factor eviction scoring, probabilistic prefetching, and query deduplication to improve hit rates and reduce backend load.

Installation

pnpm add asca-cache

Peer integrations:

pnpm add @tanstack/react-query react

Features

  • Adaptive TTL based on frequency, volatility, fetch cost, and stability
  • Multi-factor eviction engine for smarter memory pressure handling
  • Prefetch prediction from access inter-arrival patterns
  • Query deduplication window based on runtime latency distribution
  • Client integration with TanStack Query
  • Server integration for Nitro-style cached handlers
  • Strong TypeScript API and tree-shakeable exports

Quick Start

import { ASCACache } from "asca-cache";

const cache = new ASCACache<string, unknown>({
  capacity: 10 * 1024 * 1024,
  baseTTL: 60_000
});

const data = await cache.getOrFetch("users:list", async () => {
  return await fetch("https://example.com/api/users").then((r) => r.json());
});

console.log(data);
console.log(cache.getMetrics());

TanStack Query

import { createASCAQueryClient, useSmartQuery } from "asca-cache";

const queryClient = createASCAQueryClient({
  capacity: 50 * 1024 * 1024,
  baseTTL: 30_000
});

const query = useSmartQuery(["products"], async () => {
  return await fetch("/api/products").then((r) => r.json());
});

Nitro

import { createSmartCachedQuery } from "asca-cache";

const defineCachedFunction = <T>(
  handler: () => Promise<T>,
  _options: { maxAge: number; getKey: () => string; shouldBypassCache: () => boolean }
) => handler;

const smartCachedQuery = createSmartCachedQuery(
  { capacity: 50 * 1024 * 1024, baseTTL: 30_000 },
  defineCachedFunction
);

const run = smartCachedQuery("stats:live", async () => ({ usersOnline: 420 }));
const result = await run();

Benchmarks

Validated workloads from Table 1 are covered in the performance test suite:

  • E-commerce target: hit rate >= 94%, DB queries/min <= 50, latency <= 15ms
  • Social media target: hit rate >= 92%, DB queries/min <= 115, latency <= 20ms
  • Analytics target: hit rate >= 96%, DB queries/min <= 30, latency <= 25ms

Current project test run validates coverage and behavior via:

pnpm test
