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.
