    All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `void` | `onUse(Query query)` Callback that is called every time that a cached filter is used.
    `boolean` | `shouldCache(Query query)` Whether the given `Query` is worth caching.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### onUse

          void onUse(Query query)

      Callback that is called every time that a cached filter is used. This is typically useful if the policy wants to track usage statistics in order to make decisions.

    - #### shouldCache

          boolean shouldCache(Query query)
                       throws IOException

      Whether the given `Query` is worth caching. This method will be called by the `QueryCache` to know whether to cache. It will first attempt to load a `DocIdSet` from the cache. If it is not cached yet and this method returns `true` then a cache entry will be generated. Otherwise an uncached scorer will be returned.
      Throws:
        `IOException`
