How many images do you plan on having active in cache? You
couldn't have very many at 1MB without spending an enormous amount of
money on keeping them off disk.
One of my apps is an image server which has hierarchical cache
mechanism that allows me to have a soft reference cache over memcached
over a disk-based cache. Various layers will reject items that are
too big. In my case, smaller images will go into memcached, but most
full-size images never will.

hi ...
my project is about image server (this is my first project so i
don't have any previous experience)...in which i am required to
cache recently used images for fast access.. i was wondering wether
i can use memcached to cache my images .. if yes how can it be
done .. as i read in faqs of memcached that key size can be up to
250 characters (thats not a issue ) but data stored can not exceed
1mb in size .. and many images may exceed 1mb ....
