The memcached library that lighttpd uses, last I checked, was synchronous.
Lighttpd is an async webserver, which means each time it needs to fetch
something from memcached it will block the entire thing waiting for a
response.

It won't block very long, mind you, but it can't process in parallel.
Unless you aren't talking about using memcached from *within* lighttpd,
which then it probably doesn't matter.

If you intend to push a ton of traffic it might bite you. If not, you'll
be fine with it the way it is.
