Cache::FastMemoryCache - In-memory cache of arbitrary data.

  use Cache::FastMemoryCache;

  my $cache = new Cache::FastMemoryCache({ 'namespace' => 'MyNamespace' });
  $key = 'xxx';
  $href->{'name'} = 'old name';

  $cache->set( $key, $href );   # insert into cache.
  $href->{'name'} = 'new name'; # modify it after insert.

  # Later...

  $href = $cache->get($key);
  print $href->{'name'};        # prints "new name"

# ---------------------------------------------------------
# This code is largely based on DeWitt Clinton's
# Cache::MemoryCache.  It relies upon the fact that we have
# ferreted out the calls to Clone_Data().
