Memcache slow on OS X

[Randy Wigginton]

There are some known issues, but the workaround is also documented.   
It so happens I ran across a script that claims to fix the problems.   
I haven't tried it, but it might be worth a shot:
http://topfunky.net/svn/shovel/memcached/install-memcached.sh

To get mine working, I believe I had to undef TCP_NOPUSH or something  
like that.
