The file is read when the hash is initialized and rewritten when the hash is destroyed. The intent is to allow L<Memoize> to back its cache with a file in YAML format, just like L<Memoize::Storable> allows L<Memoize> to back its cache with a file in Storable format. Unlike the Storable format, the YAML format is platform-independent and fairly stable. Carps on error. =head1 DIAGNOSTICS See L<YAML::Any>. =head1 DEPENDENCIES L<YAML::Any> from CPAN. =head1 INCOMPATIBILITIES None reported. =head1 BUGS The entire cache is read into a Perl hash when loading the file, so this is not very scalable.
