You do realize you will have to configure and tune any solution :-)

Before comparing solutions, I would recommend defining your requirements
and your tolerance for failure (if you have not).  For example, Is it
acceptable that if a node (that has > 99.9% uptime) goes down, a user must
re-authenticate?  Is that extra .1 worth whatever the cost? I can't answer
that for you. What are your SLAs? (I don't know if anyone has done an
EhCache vs. Memcache load test?)
