+# ArNS Cache Timing
+
+- Status: proposed
+- Deciders: [Ariel], [Dylan], [Karl]
+- Date: 2024-12-09
+- Authors: [David]
+
+## Context and Problem Statement
+
+ArNS resolution requires multiple AO process interactions. During resolution,
+caches are used to reduce response latency and AO CU load. There is an
+intrinsic trade-off between reducing response latency (and AO CU load) and the
+freshness of ArNS responses. In order to allow gateway operators to opimtize
+this trade-off we need to define the levels of caching involved and make them
+configurable. The purpose of this ADR is to list the levels of caching and
+related timeouts involved.

+### Configurable Timeouts
+
+- **Name list TTL** - The maximum interval between name list cache refreshes
+  for names already in the cached name list.
+- **Name list miss debounce interval** - The miminum amount of time between
+  name list cache refreshes triggered by names not found in the cache.
+- **ANT state TTL** - The maximum interval between individual ANT state cache
+  refreshes when the ANT state is already cached.
+- **ANT state debounce interval** - The minimum amount of time between ANT
+  state cache refreshes triggered by not found names.
+- **ANT state concurrency limit** - The maximum number of parallel in-flight
+  ANT state requests to the CU.
