The syntax differences don't lend themselves to being swapped out that easily. Unless you are going to do a full code roll out to one set of servers and not another, I don't think this is too easy.

They have different compression settings and I am not sure if they set the same flag when sending compressed data. I have not had a reason to look into it.

A simple test would tell you for sure. Just try it out on your test systems and see how it works. Report back.

Hi all,

We're in the process of switching from the pecl memcache extension to
the pecl memcached extension, but we would like to start out by doing
a very limited rollout of the memcached extension so we can compare
performance and make sure everything is working as expected.
The documentation about the hashing/failover strategies used by the
memcache extension is extremely limited. Does anyone know which
settings I should use for so that pecl/memcache and pecl/memcached
choose the same servers for each key? Should it be considered
generally safe to have both clients working on the same keys?

Thanks,

Jay
