i guess you could do it this way - may be slow though as its not asyncronous so has to write to all instances.
No matter what you do using @ operator is a very bad idea. this is how undetectable bugs happen, id check for response and throw exception if error is important. if you have many servers would probably be much more efficient to have some kind of consistent hashing function so that each key would be saved into 2 servers only. You will not have multiple failures unless you have tons of servers. Then you save each key in 2 servers not N, makes save much much faster and saves you space. regards art On 23 May 2010 23:11, Jay <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I have thought a bit on how to make sure that a particular key is > distributed to ALL memcached servers in a pool.
