Software Caching

Software caching is a technique where a system temporarily stores frequently accessed data or instructions in a fast, nearby storage area to improve performance. Think of it like a short-term memory that keeps important information close at hand so the system can quickly retrieve it without going through slower, long-term storage each time. This reduces waiting times and speeds up processes, making applications run more efficiently. Caching is common in web browsers, servers, and software to enhance user experience and system responsiveness.
