Code Cache

Definitions

1. A cache used to store compiled, parsed, or otherwise optimized code representations so repeated execution can skip expensive preparation work. Code caches appear in JIT runtimes, template engines, and build systems where compiling the same code repeatedly would waste time.

   In plain English: A cache that stores processed code so it can run or load faster next time.

   Example: "Warm requests improved dramatically once the runtime's code cache stopped being invalidated on every minor configuration reload."
