Sorry, I misunderstood the information on the homepage of memcached.
Or rather, the example given in the "API's" page. I saw the database query and missed the previous call's details. I get it now.
However, it still does not seem to fill my needs, because I am looking for something that will work under Apache under Unix *or* Windows.
I understand the "memcached clients" can be anything, but the memcached server module seems to be Unix-only, not so ?
Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be any kind of locking available in memcached itself, thus really sharing modifiable data doesn't seem possible.
Or are these again wrong interpretations ?
