[drupal-devel] performance improvements - avoiding big unserialize()

[Dries Buytaert]

The problem, however, is multi-server setups like drupal.org.  How  
does one maintain consistent caches across different servers (unless  
you use a distributed cache like memcached or ... a database cache  
like we do now)?

if (multi-server setup) {
   1. use memcached or
   2. use a shared database cache or
   3. invent a cache-coherency protocol?
}
else if (APC) {
   4. use APC
}
