NAME

       CHI::Stats - Record and report per-namespace cache statistics

VERSION

       version 0.60

SYNOPSIS

           # Turn on statistics collection
           CHI->stats->enable();

           # Perform cache operations

           # Flush statistics to logs
           CHI->stats->flush();

           ...

           # Parse logged statistics
           my $results = CHI->stats->parse_stats_logs($file1, ...);

DESCRIPTION

       CHI can record statistics, such as number of hits, misses and sets, on a per-namespace
       basis and log the results to your Log::Any logger.  You can then parse the logs to get a
       combined summary.

       A single CHI::Stats object is maintained for each CHI root class, and tallies statistics
       over any number of CHI::Driver objects.

       Statistics are reported when you call the "flush" method. You can choose to do this once
       at process end, or on a periodic basis.

METHODS

       enable, disable, enabled
           Enable, disable, and query the current enabled status.

           When stats are enabled, each new cache object will collect statistics. Enabling and
           disabling does not affect existing cache objects. e.g.

               my $cache1 = CHI->new(...);
               CHI->stats->enable();
               # $cache1 will not collect statistics
               my $cache2 = CHI->new(...);
               CHI->stats->disable();
               # $cache2 will continue to collect statistics

       flush
           Log all statistics to Log::Any (at Info level in the CHI::Stats category), then clear
           statistics from memory. There is one log message for each distinct triplet of root
           class, cache label, and namespace. Each log message contains the string "CHI stats:"
           followed by a JSON encoded hash of statistics. e.g.

               CHI stats: {"absent_misses":1,"label":"File","end_time":1338410398,
                  "get_time_ms":5,"namespace":"Foo","root_class":"CHI",
                  "set_key_size":6,"set_time_ms":23,"set_value_size":20,"sets":1,
                  "start_time":1338409391}

       parse_stats_logs
           Accepts one or more stats log files as parameters. Parses the logs and returns a
           listref of stats hashes by root class, cache label, and namespace. e.g.

               [
                   {
                       root_class     => 'CHI',
                       label          => 'File',
                       namespace      => 'Foo',
                       absent_misses  => 100,
                       avg_compute_time_ms => 23,
                       ...
                   },
                   {
                       root_class     => 'CHI',
                       label          => 'File',
                       namespace      => 'Bar',
                       ...
                   },
               ]

           Lines with the same root class, cache label, and namespace are summed together.  Non-
           stats lines are ignored. The parser will ignore anything on the line before the "CHI
           stats:" string, e.g. a timestamp.

           Each parameter to this method may be a filename or a reference to an open filehandle.

STATISTICS

       The following statistics are tracked in the logs:

       •   "absent_misses" - Number of gets that failed due to item not being in the cache

       •   "compute_time_ms" - Total time spent computing missed results in compute, in ms
           (divide by number of computes to get average).  i.e. the amount of time spent in the
           code reference passed as the third argument to compute().

       •   "computes" - Number of compute calls

       •   "expired_misses" - Number of gets that failed due to item expiring

       •   "get_errors" - Number of caught runtime errors during gets

       •   "get_time_ms" - Total time spent in get operation, in ms (divide by number of gets to
           get average)

       •   "hits" - Number of gets that succeeded

       •   "set_key_size" - Number of bytes in set keys (divide by number of sets to get average)

       •   "set_value_size" - Number of bytes in set values (divide by number of sets to get
           average)

       •   "set_time_ms" - Total time spent in set operation, in ms (divide by number of sets to
           get average)

       •   "sets" - Number of sets

       •   "set_errors" - Number of caught runtime errors during sets

       The following additional derived/aggregate statistics are computed by parse_stats_logs:

       •   "misses" - "absent_misses" + "expired_misses"

       •   "gets" - "hits" + "misses"

       •   "avg_compute_time_ms" - "compute_time_ms" / "computes"

       •   "avg_get_time_ms" - "get_time_ms" / "gets"

       •   "avg_set_time_ms" - "set_time_ms" / "sets"

       •   "avg_set_key_size" - "set_key_size" / "sets"

       •   "avg_set_value_size" - "set_value_size" / "sets"

       •   "hit_rate" - "hits" / "gets"
