Building a perl var from a storable has almost no overhead.
Storable is fast, but not using it is considerably faster. There's no
need to use it for storing simple strings. BerkeleyDB does shared
memory caching, so commonly accessed data doesn't need to go to disk.
Unless you're already using mysql in your app , I wouldn't add it
in -- you'll introduce a new potential performance bottleneck.
Primary key lookups in MySQL over local sockets are very fast --
faster than memcached.
