一、LruCache是什么？
LRU是Least Recently Used 近期最少使用算法。内存管理的一种页面置换算法，对于在内存中但又不用的数据块（内存块）叫做LRU，操作系统会根据哪些数据属于LRU而将其移出内存而腾出空间来加载另外的数据。什么是LRU算法？ LRU即最近最少使用，常用于页面置换算法，是为虚拟页式存储管理服务的。（百度详解 https://baike.baidu.com/item/LRU/1269842?fr=aladdin）
Cache是缓存的意思。从字面上我们可以了解LruCache就是一个使用近期最少使用算法的缓存类，因此，安卓在Android.util包提供了LruCache这个缓存类。
二、为什么使用LruCache？
1、LruCache已经存在于官方的API当中，无需添加任何依赖即可使用。它的主要算法原理是把最近使用的对象用强引用存储在 LinkedHashMap 中，并且把最近最少使用的对象在缓存值达到预设定值之前从内存中移除。
2、现在的APP大多数是需要联网才能使用，例如我们要做一个电子商务App，如果我们不加节制的向服务器请求大量图片，那么对于服务器来说是一个不少的负担，其次，对于用户来说，每次刷新都意味着流量的大量消耗以及长时间等待，所以缓存机制几乎是每个需要联网的App必须做的。
三、如何使用LruCache？
1、首先了解官方提供的LruCache源码

以上是官方提供的LruCache的方法，因为LruCache多用于图片的缓存，所以以下是LruCache对图片bitmap的简单使用。
public class LruCashUtil {
private static final String TAG = "LruCashUtil";
private LruCache lruCache;
//用来初始化缓存对象
public LruCashUtil( ) {
//获取到最大可用的内存空间
long maxMemory = Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory();
int cacheSize = (int) (maxMemory / 8);
lruCache = new LruCache(cacheSize) {
@Override
protected int sizeOf(String key,Bitmap value) {
return value.getByteCount();
}
};
}
// 把Bitmap对象加入到缓存中
public void addBitmapToMemory(String key,Bitmap bitmap) {
if (getBitmapFromMemCache(key) == null) {
lruCache.put(key,bitmap);
}
}
// 从缓存中得到Bitmap对象
public Bitmap getBitmapFromMemCache(String key) {
Log.i(TAG,"lrucache size: " + lruCache.size());
return lruCache.get(key);
}
// 从缓存中删除指定的Bitmap
public void removeBitmapFromMemory(String key) {
lruCache.remove(key);
}
}
