Keep a single Makefile validate-check target that prints the full
/metrics dump, highlights hit/miss fields, and curls /lancache-heartbeat.
Drop the duplicate README troubleshooting item and align the validation
chapter plus validate-config.yaml comments with that behavior.
Link: #29
The README buried hit/miss verification under the SteamPrefill validation
chapter, and advertised make validate-check without a Makefile target.
Operators need a short start → traffic → metrics path against the existing
/metrics and /lancache-heartbeat endpoints.
Link: #29
- Replaced the `validate-with-prefill.sh` script with a streamlined `make validate` command for improved usability.
- Updated `validate-config.yaml` to clarify cache management instructions and garbage collection algorithms.
- Enhanced comments to provide better guidance on upstream configurations and their implications for caching setups.
- Added metrics for bytes saved from cache to improve performance insights.
- Updated cache eviction strategies in MemoryFS and DiskFS to include metrics tracking for hits and evictions.
- Enhanced README.md with updated garbage collection algorithm descriptions and recommendations for cache usage.
- Introduced new madviseSequential functionality for improved memory access hints on Unix systems.
- Adjusted validation configuration in examples to better reflect realistic usage scenarios.
- Added new targets in the Makefile for validation, including `run-validation`, `validate-check`, and `validate-kill`, to streamline the testing process with external tools like SteamPrefill.
- Introduced a `setcap` target to manage necessary capabilities for running the server on port 80 without root access.
- Updated README.md to include detailed instructions for validating functionality, including quick start guides and troubleshooting tips.
- Improved .gitignore to exclude validation artifacts and logs, ensuring a cleaner repository.
