Doesn't matter if either way, with network overhead from talking to your application from another machine, it's measured in milliseconds.

- halayli 5y agoOf course it matters. You probably haven't written low latency server daemons. A busy memcached might be serving 20k to 100k requests a second, it's not serving 1 user only. 100k requests all being translated to memory vs disk reads will have a huge performance impact.
