Hi

We are seeing unexpected memcache behaviour during high load and have
confirmed it in a small test app.

In the following thread
http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/45272062a8e36545/2289806f3f711c09?lnk=gst&q=memcache+atomic#2289806f3f711c09
Ryan Barrett says that:

"as for the datastore, and all other current stored data APIs like
memcache, there is a single, global view of data. we go to great
lengths to ensure that these APIs are strongly consistent."

I interpret this as: "If our application successfully sets a memcache
value for a particular key, then no matter how soon after and no
matter on which application instance we try to access that key again,
then it will return the value just set"

If that interpretation is correct then we think that there is a
problem somewhere, because we are seeing very inconsistent behaviour
on memcache (i.e. different values coming back for different requests
for the same memcache key) when we stress test our application with a
lot of concurrent requests.

If anybody could shed some light on this for us it would be much
appreciated.

Best regards,
Morten Nielsen
