Particularly the multiple servers section, which does not detail if all memcached daemons should be configured to listen on all interfaces i.e. 0.0.0.0 So just as a sanity check: Scenario 1: (memcached installed naively ( i.e. listening on localhost:11211) on multiple ubuntu servers) * Dev sets up her CACHE_LOCATIONS = ['server1:11211', 'server2:11211'] but is none the wiser that there is no interoperability between servers, meaning roughly 50% cache misses in totality. * Each django process cycles through each location, only localhost is successful, no warning logs generated Scenario 1: (memcached installed and configured to listen on 0.0.0.0:11211) on multiple ubuntu servers) * Dev sets up her CACHE_LOCATIONS = ['server1:11211', 'server2:11211'] and django add/sets keys on all memcache servers successfully * Each django process cycles through each location, adding/setting keys as it goes So, am I right in thinking that the docs assume Scenario 2, but Scenario 1 is a plausible setup, it would just mean lots of misses, but then a pro of no network overhead.
