 // // Check and consume `val`.

 // TODO(hjiang):
-// 1. Add template arguments for key hash and key equal, to pass into absl::flat_hash_map.
-// 2. Provide a key hash wrapper to save a copy.
-// 3. flat hash map supports heterogeneous lookup, expose `KeyLike` templated interface.
-// 4. Add a `GetOrCreate` interface, which takes factory function to creation value.
-// 5. For thread-safe cache, add a sharded container wrapper to reduce lock contention.
+// 1. Write a wrapper around KeyHash and KeyEq, which takes std::reference_wrapper<Key>,
+// so we could store keys only in std::list, and reference in absl::flat_hash_map.
+// 2. Add a `GetOrCreate` interface, which takes factory function to creation value.
+// 3. For thread-safe cache, add a sharded container wrapper to reduce lock contention.
