MemcacheFS

[Erik Osterman]

No, never tested the python code. Not sure I understand what you mean by 
"list". It merely wraps an existing filesytem, so all operations you 
normally can do on a filesystem apply. You can list files, stat them, 
delete them, etc... The purpose of the python fuse code is to accelerate 
costly stat operations. It does this by caching the stat structure on 
memcache. It doesn't let you list arbitrary keys in memcache, because 
memcache is not the filesystem, it's just the cache.
