  Beta Feature!

**Cache** provides an optional caching layer for LLMs.

Cache is useful for two reasons:

- It can save you money by reducing the number of API calls you make to the LLM
  provider if you're often requesting the same completion multiple times.
- It can speed up your application by reducing the number of API calls you make
  to the LLM provider.

Cache directly competes with Memory. See documentation for Pros and Cons.

**Class hierarchy:**

    The cache interface consists of the following methods:

    - lookup: Look up a value based on a prompt and llm_string.
    - update: Update the cache based on a prompt and llm_string.
    - clear: Clear the cache.

    In addition, the cache interface provides an async version of each method.

    The default implementation of the async methods is to run the synchronous
    method in an executor. It's recommended to override the async methods
