I disagree here. Dbmail would benefit from memcached even without multimaster replication. It would help a lot even with a single memcached instance on localhost if we store often repeated queries. I just finished debianizing libmemcache and php4-mcache so I can start playing with this stuff 8-) For those of you interested: deb http://debian.nfgd.net/unstable debian main -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl
