Jon Moore commented on HTTPCLIENT-1153:
---------------------------------------

Ok, just checked in the implementation here. Worth discussing: I ended up 
deprecating one of the existing constructors (one that took a custom 
serializer) because I had to change the serialization mechanism to accommodate 
fixing this bug. I somewhat suspect few folks would have been using custom 
serializers anyway, but there is a new constructor and some new interfaces that 
can be implemented if custom serialization is still desired.

I chose SHA-256 as the default hashing scheme here. Do you think it is worth 
implementing fallback algorithms based on SHA-1 or MD5? I'm somewhat inclined 
to just let others contribute them if desired. The current default scheme with 
SHA-256 essentially resorts to not caching at all if it can't find a SHA-256 
algorithm, which might not be great for a default. Falling back to a weaker 
algorithm is probably not hard, so perhaps I'll look at that next.

At any rate, the KeyHashingScheme interface should let us also provide a 
prefix-naming scheme to solve HTTPCLIENT-1154 as well.

@Clinton: does this work for you?

> Spy memcached has 250 defined as max key length:
> http://dustin.github.com/java-memcached-client/apidocs/constant-values.html#net.spy.memcached.MemcachedClientIF.MAX_KEY_LENGTH
> URLs can be (and often are) much longer than 250 characters.
> URLs should be hashed before being used as keys.
