Memcached happily removes keys when it feels so Please see this post where memcached author recommends not to store sessions in memcached: http://dormando.livejournal.com/495593.html http://dormando.livejournal.com/495593.html

> Memcached happily removes keys when it feels so I know about memcache key eviction. For most of the applications, that is an acceptable compromise. For others, back up the sessions in the db every n seconds as mentioned in the article. Session is loaded every request and hitting the db every request is not something I want.
