I have not used memcached or the CP Cache Filter myself... but, I can point out one difference that is worth noting: memcached runs in a separate process and is written in a different language. This means that there is added communication overhead. Of course, memcached has many more features, which may or may not be relevant to you. The CP Cache Filter runs in process (because CherryPy is multithreaded) and can hang on to arbitrary Python objects without having to do interprocess communication and translation. So, if it meets your needs features-wise, it will likely be faster. That conclusion is theoretical, of course. Only testing would show whether there's a difference. Certainly the cache filter is easier to set up. Kevin
