Does mcrouter support connecting to the closest memcache server?

[xcpdq]

Currently mcrouter seems to do what we need which is replicate data across multiple memcache servers to spread out the connection load. My question is does mcrouter have a way of knowing how to connect to the closer connecting server based on location because we want our for instance japan server connecting to mcrouter to connect to the closest memcache server in the memcache pool if possible or would we have to solve that anther way? And if the latter what would you recommend we do?

I would read through the Wiki and the documentation in the repository. Use latency awareness to accomplish that.
