Hi All,
I am launching a video intensive Apple Fan site that uses HTML5 video.
With many people hitting the site, my thought is the more popular
videos should be cached. However I am not privy on how to setup
memcached for such use.
The machine this site is running on is CentOS 5.5 64 but, Apache
Wrong cache..
Store your video's on the filesystem, definitely not. ever. in a database, and
cache using a webserver such as varnish.

no, I am storing my videos on the file system and in the db are just entries
pointing to the path on the file system.
Yikes, I could not imagine a db with the video's stored in it, yuck.
so memcached is not the answer here?

I would also recommend Varnish cache for this. You will get FAR more
performance out of it and it will scale much higher for this type of
application.

I would look at Amazon AWS CloudFront or similar services from
RackSpaceCloud or VPS.net.
Hosting what you hope to become popular videos on one server is almost
guaranteed to fail or run up serious bandwidth charges or both.
