But you're..._adding_ support for memcached to that system. If this were
a system already using memcached, it'd be...speaking memcached. If it
were using a different, external caching system, you'd probably expect
some measure of integration code, or at least testing it if, like
Tyrant, it did speak the same protocol you were expecting. The only
other case would be if you weren't using some external cache already, in
which event you're going to be adding logic, regardless.

I think we don't have the same concept of "the system". Mine is that unrelated programs may be using the same data and only some of them are designed around memcache and need its speed. Maybe it would be better to embed memcache into a traditional http proxy for the things that don't to avoid having the cache miss logic everywhere.
