Problem

Implement a fixed-capacity cache for audio segments identified by string keys. The cache must support get(key) and put(key, value, size) in O(1) average time. When inserting a new segment would exceed the cache capacity, evict least recently used segments until enough space is available. Return -1 from get if the key is missing. If a segment's size is larger than the total capacity, do not store it.

Constraints

  • 1 <= capacity <= 10^5
  • 1 <= len(operations) <= 2 * 10^5
  • Each operation is either ["get", key] or ["put", key, value, size]
  • 1 <= len(key) <= 100
  • 1 <= size <= 10^5
