I'm glad to announce Apache::Session::Memcached. This module provides a way to use memcached as Apache::Session storage implementation
I wouldn't recommend using memcached for storing sessions. Memcached is explicitly unreliable storage. It is built with the premise that you won't put anything into it that you care about losing. If it gets full, it will simply drop data from storage. The mechanism for failover across multiple machines also counts on being able to lose all the data from one machine without it being a big deal.
Memcached would be better suited to acting as a write-through cache for session data that you store in a database.
