	 * @brief This class is a cache manager for Frame objects.
	 *
	 * It is used by FileReaders (such as FFmpegReader) to cache recently accessed frames. Due to the
	 * high cost of decoding streams, once a frame is decoded, converted to RGB, and a Frame object is created,
	 * it critical to keep these Frames cached for performance reasons.  However, the larger the cache, the more memory
	 * is required.  You can set the max number of bytes to cache.
