Help: verb_cache_stats()

Showing help on 'verb_cache_stats()'

Syntax: verb_cache_stats() => LIST
log_cache_stats() => NONE

The server caches verbname-to-program lookups to improve performance. These functions respectively return or write to the server log file the current cache statistics. For verb_cache_stats the return value will be a list of the form

{hits, negative_hits, misses, table_clears, histogram},

though this may change in future server releases. The cache is invalidated by any builtin function call that may have an effect on verb lookups (e.g., delete_verb()).
