forceps is made to be an easy-to-use, thread-safe, performant, and asynchronous disk cache
that has easy reading and manipulation of data. It levereges tokio's async fs APIs
and fast task schedulers to perform IO operations, and sled as a fast metadata database.
It was originally designed to be used in scalpel,
the MD@Home implementation for the Rust language.
Just as a warning, this crate is still yet to be heavily tested and is still lacking features. It is advisable to use another solution if you have the option!
