Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2005-12-30 Severity: wishlist * Package name : libmemcache Version : 1.4.0.b9 Upstream Author : Sean Chittenden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://people.freebsd.org/~seanc/libmemcache/ * License : BSD Description : C client API for memcached memory object caching system memcached optimizes specific high-load serving applications that are designed to take advantage of its versatile no-locking memory access system. Clients are available in several different programming languages, to suit the needs of the specific application. Traditionally this has been used in mod_perl apps to avoid storing large chunks of data in Apache memory, and to share this burden across several machines. . Danga Interactive developed memcached to enhance the speed of LiveJournal.com, a site which was already doing 20 million+ dynamic page views per day for 1 million users with a bunch of webservers and a bunch of database servers. memcached dropped the database load to almost nothing, yielding faster page load times for users, better resource utilization, and faster access to the databases on a memcache miss. .
