Restarting the MemcacheD Cluster

[timeless]

Suppose somehow we've decided there's "bad data" in the MemcacheD 
cluster, and don't really know where it is. It seems the safest course 
of action would be to flush_all across the cluster.

Here's what I came up with for doing it:

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 ; do echo "flush_all" | netcat -q 1 memcached.$i 
11211 ; sleep 15 ; done

Does this seem reasonable to everyone? Is there a more elegent (or 
proper) way of doing this? (Doing a rolling restart of the memcached 
daemons across my cluster appears to be the WRONG way to do it, and 
seems it would cause cache corruption).
