Quite a bit of risk telescoping there...because you had the source code to the memcached library so in the theoretical case you found a bug in mature code (how many times have you seen that?), you weren't SOL. So instead you switched to an entirely new system? If you were trying to minimize risk and cost, you did the opposite unless memcached was doing something else that was a problem.

It wasn't entirely just that, we had to switch to redis for another sub-system and IIRC there some positive implication for cache layer as well. It's been awhile it wasn't just because memcached libary was unmaintained.
