1) I'm guessing your comment "fear of potential bottleneck" was referring to my comment ""not to have these servers bogged down in notifications". That isn't really our main concern. Our main concern because of which we are hesitant to go towards a full and proper implementation of memcache is "the time lag that would be caused by a client having to get data from another server". We only want to do a notification on a DB write which is very infrequent (relatively), the vast majority of activity is DB reads.
2) Can you please tell me what is "spread"? 3) What are the implications of adding a server with addserver for a brief moment and then removing the server, assuming there is some way to do that. Does it invalidate the entire cache? Thanks again for your help.
