How exactly does Memcache do load balancing? Suppose I have 3 Memcached servers, and I start storing items in server CACHE1. Later somehow CACHE1 crashes, and all info there is gone. What happens then? Would I have to code in my logic to start moving all future caches to CACHE2? Also, what if CACHE1 gets full? How would my PHP application know to move to CACHE2 for further caches?
