I agree it is already quite big.  But until the auth stuff is
documented in the regular documentation I was not opposed to your
decision to add all those comments.

> Why include memcaching on GAE and not ram caching on non-GAE?

1. On GAE if one wants to use sessions, something has to be done
expicitely.  Either store it in BigTable, or, which I just learned two
days ago, store it in Google Memcache, which is IMO a superior
solution, since it does not lead to piling up all those sessions in
BigTable.  And since access to BigTable is under quota, it seems to be
another reason to have sessions stored in Memcache.

2. On non-GAE sessions work out of the box, so it is not mandatory to
tweak session handling.  Memcache on non-GAE requires setting up a
Memcached server, so it would not be enough to just uncomment a few
lines in db.py.  And caching the sessions in RAM is IMO currently not
possible with web2py.  Am I wrong?

Kind regards,
Markus
