Is this a good way of using Memcache? Or is there a better way?
It sounds like it'd be cheaper and allow you to make better use of
cache, so I'd assume it's good.
Being able to rely on a cache will impact your design and will
generally be good. I do some things very similar to this that
involve grabbing some list-like data, and then fetching items related
to items within the list. As many as I can get come from cache, and
the rest have to be fetched from the source, and then placed back
into the cache.
