What pre-caching methods are implemented in RecyclerView?

RecyclerView implements several data pre-caching methods that improve scrolling smoothness and performance:

• ViewHolder Cache — RecyclerView stores several ViewHolders in memory to reuse them during scrolling, instead of creating new ones.
• Prefetching — starting from RecyclerView version 24.2.0, a preloading mechanism for items that will soon appear on the screen has been implemented. LayoutManager can inform RecyclerView which positions will be needed, and RecyclerView prepares ViewHolders in advance.
• RecycledViewPool — a pool for reusing ViewHolders across different RecyclerViews, allowing caching and reuse of elements even when lists change.

These methods together help minimize delays during scrolling by preparing and reusing list items.
