Actually if anyone can provide hints about existing memcached replication solutions, especially for php, that would make me very happy. We have some keys that are very expensive to regenerate when they fall out of memcached, so losing a bucket due to server failure, maintenance, etc. is very painful right now. We have way more memory than we'll need any time soon for memcache, so it would be ideal if each bucket could be replicated on another server, so if one has to go down in the middle of the day, we don't lose all of the keys stored there.
