Re: [google-appengine] Re: Memcache expiration
Thanks. In my case the memcache entry reflects what would be the result of a particular datastore query, so if the entry is purged the datastore query can always be run.

Having said that relatively short periods 30 minutes for expiration tend to be ok. Though some times apps have at times very short life spans for data in memcache T On Monday, June 3, 2013 9:08:01 PM UTC+8, Pertti Kellomäki wrote: Hi all, I have never used the app engine memcache before, so I would like to double check that I understand how expiration works. I maintain a bit of state in memcache for each client, and I want the state to hang around as long as the client is alive, but go away after that. Reading the docs suggests that expiration is solely determined by insertion/update operations, so my client does a periodic .cas() on the state to move the expiration deadline forward. Is this a sensible implementation on app engine? My app is in Python if that makes a difference. The background is that clients poll for new events posted on the server. New events are inserted in event queues in memcache for each client, with a fallback of reading the events from datastore. -- Pertti -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google App Engine group.
