- "You mean caching?" - "Nope, memoization." - "Uh ok."

  I like that it's not called caching because caching for me makes me think that there is some sort of eviction policy. I generally talk about "storing" data in "lookup tables" if I'm talking to someone not familiar with the jargon

    Good point. Caching does usually refer to a temporary memory store.

  IMO: caching : memoization :: program performance : algorithm performance
