I didn't intend to be overly pejorative. I too have now a decade of Perl
Hacking on my back, but looking at my own code I think I'm able to write good
code only for the last two years or so. ;-)

Probably a really significant speed improvement could be only done with either
XS or Inline::C client. I aggree, that there must/should be a pure Perl
alternative, but that's exactly what I would do: Start with the pure Perl
implementation and do Inline::C if available. Nevertheless, the pure Perl is
improvable.

I guess I will run into detailed performance considerations of
Cache::Memcached in late August or September on a new project I have to
babysit. So if the perl client will need improvement I will have the time
allocated for that. That's 2-3 months, but I know then I will not get
sidetracked.
