Designed to improve application responsiveness with the following key features:
Hybrid Loading: The constructor blocks until the first item in a collection is loaded; then processes the remaining items asynchronously in the background. This allows your application to start working with data immediately.
Thread-Safety: Guarantees safe access in concurrent environments. Calls to retrieve items that are still being processed will block until the data is ready.
Memory-Efficiency: Operates in a single-pass workflow. Once an item is retrieved, its reference is dropped from the internal cache to minimize memory footprint. Retrieving the same item again will trigger a new, synchronous load. If items require multiple uses, references to the items must be maintained externally.
