gorsk VS Memcached

One repository that I always look is this: https://github.com/ribice/gorsk

> Multiple clients racing can't be fixed.

Really? You can't think of a single way for multiple clients to operate on the same data without racing? (Here's a hint if you're still having trouble: https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki/Commands#cas.)

Memcached: A simple, open-source, distributed memory object caching system primarily used for caching strings. Best suited for lightweight, non-persistent caching needs.

Oh, thank you! I didn't realize that LRU Maintainer Thread was more than an expiration reaper. When it was first being introduced that was its first responsibility as lazy expiration removal by size eviction meant dead entries wasted capacity. It was all work in progress when I had read about it [1] and talked to dormando, so it got fuzzy. The compat code [2, 3] might have also thrown me off if I only looked at the setting and not the usage. Its a neat variant to all of these ideas.

stores session state in a session store like Memcached or Redis.

memcached has recently gained the ability to spill to disk: https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki/Extstore

we recently implemented this to grow our caches to >50TB

Django supports using Memcached as a cache backend. Memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory caching system that can be used to store cached data across multiple servers.

In server-side authentication, the session state is stored on the server-side, which can be scaled horizontally across multiple servers using tools like Redis or Memcached.
