Hi Toby,
note that you can still use Cache::FastMmap with Catalyst::Plugin::Cache
(Config::General config file section):

<Plugin::Cache>
<backend>
        class Cache::FastMmap
        expires 3600
        cache_size 8m
</backend>
</Plugin::Cache>

It took me also some time to find out which module is the 'old' and
which the 'new' one, docs need improvement for that.
I'm using it since years without a single segfault. You shouldn't use it
as a session *store* because it is a *cache* which means it can drop a
stored entry anytime if it runs out of memory for a new entry.

Cheers, Alex

Hey all,
I noticed today that Catalyst::Plugin::Cache::FastMmap has been
DEPRECATED for some now. (With dire warnings about it segfaulting or
discarding data randomly)

I just wondered what the recommended caching backend is now, to use
with Catalyst::Plugin::Cache.

(In my case, cached data doesn't need to be consistent between app
servers.. it's more just for performance so simple local-disk is fine
for caching, rather than memcached or database based solutions.)

Cheers,
Toby
