## Also known as
|
|
* IsDirty pattern
|
|
|
|
## Intent
|
|
To avoid expensive re-acquisition of resources. The resources retain their identity, are kept in some
|
|
fast-access storage, and are re-used to avoid having to acquire them again.

## Applicability
|
|
Use the Dirty Flag pattern when
|
|
|
|
* Repetitious acquisition, initialization, and release of the same resource causes unnecessary performance overhead.
