Interacting with memcached is faster and cheaper than the datastore, but it still costs something both in terms of performance and money. Is it recommended to load commonly used data into the app scope (of every new server that spins up) and use it from there rather than pulling it directly from memcached on every request? If data in memcached changes, is there a way to ensure that all the app scopes are synchronized with those changes?
Also, how permanent is memcached? Does it have to be rebuilt from the datastore at times? Are there predictable events to watch out for?
