+# Cache Implementations Guide
+
+The `@fjell/cache` package now provides multiple cache implementations to suit different environments and persistence requirements.
+
+## Available Implementations
+
+### 1. MemoryCacheMap (Default)
+**Location**: `src/memory/MemoryCacheMap.ts`
+**Use case**: Server-side or Node.js applications
+
+```typescript
+import { MemoryCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const cache = new MemoryCacheMap<YourItem, 'item-type'>(keyTypeArray);
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Fast, in-memory storage
+- Data lost when application restarts
+- No persistence across sessions
+- Thread-safe for single process
+- Best performance for frequent read/write operations
+
+### 2. LocalStorageCacheMap
+**Location**: `src/browser/LocalStorageCacheMap.ts`
+**Use case**: Browser applications requiring persistent storage
+
+```typescript
+import { LocalStorageCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const cache = new LocalStorageCacheMap<YourItem, 'item-type'>(
+  keyTypeArray,
+  'my-app-cache' // optional prefix
+);
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- ~5-10MB storage limit
+- Data persists across browser sessions and restarts
+- Synchronous operations
+- Shared across all tabs for the same origin
+- Stores data as JSON strings
+
+### 3. SessionStorageCacheMap
+**Location**: `src/browser/SessionStorageCacheMap.ts`
+**Use case**: Browser applications requiring tab-scoped temporary storage
+
+```typescript
+import { SessionStorageCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const cache = new SessionStorageCacheMap<YourItem, 'item-type'>(
+  keyTypeArray,
+  'my-session-cache' // optional prefix
+);
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- ~5MB storage limit
+- Data lost when browser tab is closed
+- Synchronous operations
+- Tab-specific storage (not shared between tabs)
+- Stores data as JSON strings
+
+### 4. AsyncIndexDBCacheMap
+**Location**: `src/browser/AsyncIndexDBCacheMap.ts`
+**Use case**: Browser applications requiring large, structured data storage
+
+```typescript
+import { AsyncIndexDBCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const cache = new AsyncIndexDBCacheMap<YourItem, 'item-type'>(
+  keyTypeArray,
+  'my-database',    // database name
+  'cache-store',    // object store name
+  1                 // version
+);
+
+// All operations are async
+const item = await cache.get(key);
+await cache.set(key, value);
+const items = await cache.allIn(locations);
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Hundreds of MB+ storage capacity
+- Asynchronous operations (returns Promises)
+- Long-term persistence
+- Can store complex objects natively
+- Better performance for large datasets
+- Supports transactions and indexing
+
+### 5. IndexDBCacheMap (Synchronous Wrapper)
+**Location**: `src/browser/IndexDBCacheMap.ts`
+**Use case**: Browser applications needing synchronous API with IndexedDB persistence
+
+```typescript
+import { IndexDBCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const cache = new IndexDBCacheMap<YourItem, 'item-type'>(
+  keyTypeArray,
+  'my-database',    // database name
+  'cache-store',    // object store name
+  1                 // version
+);
+
+// Synchronous operations work immediately
+cache.set(key, value);          // Sets in memory cache immediately
+const item = cache.get(key);    // Gets from memory cache immediately
+const items = cache.allIn(locations);
+
+// Background sync to IndexedDB happens automatically
+// For explicit async operations, use:
+await cache.asyncCache.set(key, value);
+const item = await cache.asyncCache.get(key);
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Synchronous API compatible with other CacheMap implementations
+- Memory cache for immediate operations
+- Background IndexedDB sync for persistence
+- Higher memory usage (dual storage)
+- Best for apps migrating from synchronous cache implementations
+- Provides access to async cache via `asyncCache` property
+
+**When to use IndexDBCacheMap vs AsyncIndexDBCacheMap:**
+- **IndexDBCacheMap**: When you need synchronous compatibility or are migrating from MemoryCacheMap
+- **AsyncIndexDBCacheMap**: When you can work with async/await and want direct IndexedDB control
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Old CacheMap
+If you were previously using `CacheMap` directly:
+
+```typescript
+// OLD
+import { CacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+const cache = new CacheMap(keyTypeArray);
+
+// NEW
+import { MemoryCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+const cache = new MemoryCacheMap(keyTypeArray);
+```
+
+### Choosing the Right Implementation
+
+**For Node.js/Server applications:**
+- Use `MemoryCacheMap`
+
+**For Browser applications:**
+- **Small data, session-only**: `SessionStorageCacheMap`
+- **Small data, persistent**: `LocalStorageCacheMap`
+- **Large data, complex queries**: `AsyncIndexDBCacheMap`
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Factory Pattern
+```typescript
+import { CacheMap, MemoryCacheMap, LocalStorageCacheMap } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+function createCacheMap<V extends Item<S>, S extends string>(
+  keyTypeArray: AllItemTypeArrays<S>,
+  environment: 'node' | 'browser-persistent' | 'browser-session' = 'node'
+): CacheMap<V, S> {
+  switch (environment) {
+    case 'node':
+      return new MemoryCacheMap<V, S>(keyTypeArray);
+    case 'browser-persistent':
+      return new LocalStorageCacheMap<V, S>(keyTypeArray);
+    case 'browser-session':
+      return new SessionStorageCacheMap<V, S>(keyTypeArray);
+    default:
+      return new MemoryCacheMap<V, S>(keyTypeArray);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Error Handling for Storage
+```typescript
+try {
+  await cache.set(key, value);
+} catch (error) {
+  if (error.message.includes('quota')) {
+    // Handle storage quota exceeded
+    cache.clear(); // Clear old data
+    await cache.set(key, value); // Retry
+  }
+  throw error;
+}
+```
+
+## Key Normalization
+
+All implementations use the same key normalization logic:
+- String and number primary/location keys are normalized to strings
+- Ensures consistent behavior across different implementations
+- Prevents issues with mixed key types (e.g., '123' vs 123)
+
+This refactoring maintains full backward compatibility while providing flexible storage options for different environments and use cases.

+# Cache Configuration Quick Reference
+
+This guide provides quick reference configurations for the three most common cache types in fjell-cache.
+
+## 1. Memory Cache Configuration
+
+**Best for**: Fast access, temporary data, development environments
+
+```typescript
+import { createInstanceFactory, Options } from '@fjell/cache';
+
+const memoryOptions: Partial<Options<User, 'user'>> = {
+  cacheType: 'memory',
+  memoryConfig: {
+    maxItems: 1000,           // Store maximum 1000 items
+    ttl: 300000               // 5 minutes expiration
+  },
+  enableDebugLogging: true,   // Enable detailed logging
+  autoSync: true,             // Automatically sync with API
+  maxRetries: 3,              // Retry failed operations 3 times
+  retryDelay: 1000,           // Wait 1 second between retries
+  ttl: 600000   // 10 minutes default expiration
+};
+
+const factory = createInstanceFactory(api, memoryOptions);
+const cache = factory(coordinate, { registry });
+```
+
+**Key Features**:
+- No persistence (lost on app restart)
+- Fast access times
+- Configurable memory limits
+- Automatic TTL expiration
+
+## 2. IndexedDB Configuration
+
+**Best for**: Large datasets, offline capability, persistent storage
+
+```typescript
+const indexedDBOptions: Partial<Options<User, 'user'>> = {
+  cacheType: 'indexedDB',
+  indexedDBConfig: {
+    dbName: 'UserAppCache',     // Database name
+    version: 2,                 // Database version (increment for schema changes)
+    storeName: 'users'          // Object store name
+  },
+  enableDebugLogging: false,    // Disable debug logging in production
+  autoSync: true,               // Keep data synchronized
+  maxRetries: 5,                // More retries for async operations
+  retryDelay: 2000,             // Longer delay for database operations
+  ttl: 1800000    // 30 minutes default expiration
+};
+
+const factory = createInstanceFactory(api, indexedDBOptions);
+const cache = factory(coordinate, { registry });
+```
+
+**Key Features**:
+- Persistent storage (survives browser restart)
+- Large storage capacity (hundreds of MB+)
+- Asynchronous operations
+- Structured database with versioning
+
+## 3. localStorage Configuration
+
+**Best for**: User preferences, settings, moderate-sized persistent data
+
+```typescript
+const localStorageOptions: Partial<Options<User, 'user'>> = {
+  cacheType: 'localStorage',
+  webStorageConfig: {
+    keyPrefix: 'myapp:users:',  // Namespace to avoid key conflicts
+    compress: true              // Enable compression to save space
+  },
+  enableDebugLogging: false,    // Usually disabled in production
+  autoSync: false,              // Manual sync for better control
+  maxRetries: 2,                // Fewer retries for localStorage (usually fast)
+  retryDelay: 500,              // Quick retry for localStorage operations
+  ttl: 7200000    // 2 hours default expiration
+};
+
+const factory = createInstanceFactory(api, localStorageOptions);
+const cache = factory(coordinate, { registry });
+```
+
+**Key Features**:
+- Persistent storage (survives browser restart)
+- ~5-10MB storage limit
+- Synchronous operations
+- Optional compression
+- Key namespacing for conflict avoidance
+
+## Environment-Based Auto-Configuration
+
+Automatically select the optimal cache type based on the runtime environment:
+
+```typescript
+function createOptimalCacheConfiguration(): Partial<Options<User, 'user'>> {
+  // Browser with IndexedDB support
+  if (typeof window !== 'undefined' && 'indexedDB' in window) {
+    return {
+      cacheType: 'indexedDB',
+      indexedDBConfig: {
+        dbName: 'OptimalCache',
+        version: 1,
+        storeName: 'items'
+      },
+      enableDebugLogging: false,
+      maxRetries: 5,
+      retryDelay: 2000
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Browser with localStorage
+  if (typeof window !== 'undefined' && 'localStorage' in window) {
+    return {
+      cacheType: 'localStorage',
+      webStorageConfig: {
+        keyPrefix: 'optimal:',
+        compress: true
+      },
+      enableDebugLogging: false,
+      maxRetries: 3
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Node.js or limited browser - use memory cache
+  return {
+    cacheType: 'memory',
+    memoryConfig: {
+      maxItems: 5000,
+      ttl: 300000
+    },
+    enableDebugLogging: true,
+    maxRetries: 3
+  };
+}
+
+const optimalOptions = createOptimalCacheConfiguration();
+const factory = createInstanceFactory(api, optimalOptions);
+```
+

+# Critical Bug fixes Applied
+
+This document summarizes the critical bugs that were identified and fixed in the fjell-cache codebase.
+
+## Fixed Issues
+
+### 1. IndexedDB Race Condition in Initialization
+**File:** `src/browser/IndexDBCacheMap.ts`
+**Problem:** Initialization used fire-and-forget setTimeout with no proper synchronization
+**Fix:** Added proper Promise-based initialization with mutex-like behavior
+
+### 2. TwoQueue Eviction Order Bug
+**File:** `src/eviction/strategies/TwoQueueEvictionStrategy.ts`
+**Problem:** Recent queue eviction was selecting newest items instead of oldest (violating FIFO)
+**Fix:** Reversed iteration order to properly evict oldest items from recent queue
+
+### 3. ARC Decay Timing Bug
+**File:** `src/eviction/strategies/ARCEvictionStrategy.ts`
+**Problem:** Timer-based decay was using Date.now() for comparisons with config intervals
+**Fix:** Added proper decay timing calculations with multiple intervals per decay period
+
+### 4. JSON Normalization Key Ordering
+**File:** `src/normalization.ts`
+**Problem:** JSON.stringify produces non-deterministic key ordering
+**Fix:** Implemented deterministic stringify function with sorted keys
+
+### 5. Count-Min Sketch Hash Function
+**File:** `src/eviction/strategies/LFUEvictionStrategy.ts`
+**Problem:** Poor hash distribution causing collisions and -0/+0 issues
+**Fix:** Replaced with FNV-1a hash algorithm for better distribution
+
+### 6. Enhanced Memory Cache Metadata Sync
+**File:** `src/memory/EnhancedMemoryCacheMap.ts`
+**Problem:** Updates didn't distinguish between new entries and existing entry modifications
+**Fix:** Added proper old value tracking and selective eviction strategy notifications
+
+### 7. ARC Ghost List Memory Leak
+**File:** `src/eviction/strategies/ARCEvictionStrategy.ts`
+**Problem:** Ghost lists could grow unbounded with repeated additions
+**Fix:** Added proper FIFO eviction from ghost lists with max size enforcement
+
+### 8. IndexedDB Sync Data Loss
+**File:** `src/browser/IndexDBCacheMap.ts`
+**Problem:** Pending operations could be lost if individual sync attempts failed
+**Fix:** Implemented proper operation queue with retry mechanisms
+
+### 9. TTL Race Conditions
+**File:** `src/memory/EnhancedMemoryCacheMap.ts`
+**Problem:** Concurrent TTL checks could cause race conditions
+**Fix:** Added operation tracking to prevent concurrent TTL operations on same keys
