Hi Mohit,
ok, that makes sense. I'd be happy to write something around the
memcache issue, why use it, as it might be something that others might
find useful. If you have any suggestions on location in the
documentation, let me know.
We started using it when we built a site for Earthhour 2008
http://www.earthhour.org in Radiant, and it started getting
significant traffic - peaking at ~3M a day.
We used memcahce to improve Rails session handling, and also piped the
Radiant cache into memcache to serve pages directly from RAM instead
of disk.

Hi Ben,
If/ when you have the time, my suggestion would be this to add to
"Chapter 6 - Advanced Topics" since clearly this is an advanced topic.
That chapter is currently targeted as being a 'catch-all' for frequently
asked seldom clearly answered questions or items that may apply to a
smaller group when getting started.
3M hits a day is a lot! I wonder if it's time to do a write-up just
about that :D to answer the 'will Radiant/ Rails scale to handle my
record breaking site?' - If I'm not wrong, 3M is quite a bit "up there"
in terms of what people would have been expected to use Radiant for. Of
course, I may be wrong. What kind of deployment are you using?
In fact, I wonder what kind of hits ruby-lang gets?
Cheers,
Mohit.
