 That's what I was suspecting. 10 bytes.
 Try 10K values. (Saying that for the third time.)

 Too bad.

 You are (still) not getting it. It is *not* 1.000.000
memcached gets. It is 10.000 of 100 hits bursts. If
10.000 iterations is too much for you - make at least
1000 iterations. Or 100.

 Not *one* iteration (of "100 hits burst"), for crying
out loud. 

 There is no 'benchmarks' with 1 iteration.

 That was not easy.

 I am certainly done with this thread. 

 Unless you begin writing papers on "Cheap Deals",
that is domain that I don't know, might be
interesting.
