But, isn't this a cache.

It's usually used as a cache, but it's really unreliable shared associated memory which you can use however you like.

I will need another program to fetch the data, right?

Or to create the data - but you already have one of those.

All said however, memcached probably doesn't have anything to offer over shared mem IPC, unless you have a cluster.

 Why a file? Why not IPC::SharedMem or IPC::ShareLite?

Thanks.

HTH.
