Without a [`return`] statement, the `partialCached` function returns a string of type `template.HTML`. With a `return` statement, the `partialCached` function can return any data type.
The `partialCached` function can offer significant performance gains for complex templates that don't need to be re-rendered on every invocation.
{{% note %}}
Each Site (or language) has its own `partialCached` cache, so each site will execute a partial once.
Hugo renders pages in parallel, and will render the partial more than once with concurrent calls to the `partialCached` function. After Hugo caches the rendered partial, new pages entering the build pipeline will use the cached result.

Here is the simplest usage:
```go-html-template
{{ partialCached "footer.html" . }}
```
Pass additional arguments to `partialCached` to create variants of the cached partial. For example, if you have a complex partial that should be identical when rendered for pages within the same section, use a variant based on section so that the partial is only rendered once per section:
{{< code file=partial-cached-example.html >}}
{{ partialCached "footer.html" . .Section }}
{{< /code >}}
Pass additional arguments, of any data type, as needed to create unique variants:
```go-html-template
{{ partialCached "footer.html" . .Params.country .Params.province }}
```
The variant arguments are not available to the underlying partial template; they are only used to create unique cache keys.
To return a value from a partial template, it must contain only one `return` statement, placed at the end of the template:
```go-html-template
{{ $result := "" }}
{{ if math.ModBool . 2 }}
{{ $result = "even" }}
{{ else }}
{{ $result = "odd" }}
{{ end }}
{{ return $result }}
```
