Thank you all for the answers. I am using Linux 2.6, I will just bump up
the max connection.

One more scaling question, what about the persistent connection on
mod_perl side? I mean if I add more memcached servers, each mod_perl
server has to hold connections to all these memcached servers. Does this
scale well? How much memory does it cost to have 1 persistent
connection?
