Dont get me wrong. I'm a Microsoft guy. Maybe its just the distribution that I found, that was pre-built to 64MB. All things considered, I just feel that it is easier to run this particular caching server on Linux. Walt

Let's not start a distro war.... I'm running MS and haven't had issues with the cache. We're running about 70% but that's more to do with our caching scheme and implementation before we implemented memcache than memcached on Windows. And since our service is currently using far more than 64MB, I'm not sure where that number comes from as a limit. As for reboots, I believe our memcache server was rebooted last weekend for the first time in several months and then only because we were doing a hardware upgrade.

If you really want to run the latest and greatest edge stuff, you really should just stand up a linux box. It's dead simple to stand up an Ubuntu Linux box and run memcached. You can put that expensive Windows license to use elsewhere. -- "If you see a whole thing - it seems that it's always beautiful. Planets, lives... But up close a world's all dirt and rocks.
