Does the cache get invalidated across the multi threads?

[letrungkien]

I like the idea of this gem and would like to know if the translation cache is invalidated across the multi threads?

For example: Translation for key hello is world

• Web worker A and B are holding the cache as { en: { hello: 'world' } }
• A translation update request is sent to Web worker A and updated translation for hello to be zworld, I18n.backend.reload! is called and Worker A will refetch the translations and now has the cache as { en: { hello: 'zworld' } }

Does calling I18n.backend.reload! in Worker A also invalidate caches in Worker B?

I don't think that the caching functionality was implemented with the multi-thread support in mind as it keeps the cache in a class variable under the hood.

Thanks. I guess it's a topic for another day.
