What aspect of Memcache is too slow? Have you run AppStats yet? The overhead of Memcache is low enough for many of the top sites on the internet to use. Some sites are listed on the main page here:
http://memcached.org/ As you move closer and closer to local memory, the volatility of your cache will increase, so the only items I would store in local memory are items that are okay to lose. If you want, you can probably layer your application to fetch from memcache -> fetch from authoritative source and place into local memory on a cache miss. Just be aware that there are process memory limits, and exceeding these will force a restart.
