// We can use stl container list as a double
// ended queue to store the cache keys, with
// the descending time of reference from front
// to back and a set container to check presence
// of a key. But to fetch the address of the key
// in the list using find(), it takes O(N) time.
// This can be optimized by storing a reference
// (iterator) to each key in a hash map.
