I'm already using memcached over http so I can have multiple memcached instances. But there isn't any way to set priority or which cache the item goes to or is pulled from. So if I had a local memcached instance, there's no way I could be sure which memcached instance the data was coming from. I already store the data on disk as a back-up in case the connection to my memcached servers fails. But I'm really looking to store it in local memory. And hopefully without adding any other tools to my stack.
