Well on the other hand if you split the data between a pool of servers there
is less amount on each so it works faster this way.
You could just make client side code such way - do not add the servers to
pool (dont use add_server()) but just to do set() command on each of
Memcaches and then do a random get() (if the first connect fails (eg server
went down) connect to the second server)).
Practicaly you can implement pretty everything on client side code..
