Cache configurations should be runtime-configurable rather than hardcoded, with support for dynamic resizing when configuration changes. This practice improves adaptability to varying workloads and environments without requiring service restarts.

When implementing caches:

1. Define cache capacities as configurable parameters: ```rust // Instead of this: const REL_SIZE_CACHE_CAPACITY: usize = 1024;

// Do this: #[derive(Debug, Clone, Deserialize)] pub struct TenantConfig { pub relsize_snapshot_cache_capacity: usize, // other config parameters… }

2. Implement handlers to resize caches when configuration changes:
```rust
fn tenant_conf_updated(&self, new_conf: TenantConfig) {
    // Update the cache capacity when config changes
    let mut cache = self.rel_size_cache.write().unwrap();
    cache.resize_capacity(new_conf.relsize_snapshot_cache_capacity);
}

1. Handle existing entries properly during cache operations to prevent memory leaks:

   fn insert(&mut self, key: K, value: V) {
    if self.cache.contains_key(&key) {
        // Handle existing entry - consider evicting old entry, 
        // updating statistics, or queueing for cleanup
        self.deletion_queue.send(key.clone());
    }
    self.cache.insert(key, value);
   }
   

This approach ensures that caches can be tuned for optimal performance based on actual usage patterns without service disruptions, and properly manages the lifecycle of cached entries.
