Performance statistics

I would be curious to see what your performance is like, when you add more items to the cache than you have physical memory, with random r/w to various objects stored in diskcached.

The reason your stats are in favor of diskcached, is b/c you are fetching from memory, and not the disk. Once you read a file off disk, our friend Linux will cache it in memory. Diskcached is faster than memcached, b/c it doesn't need to fetch the object(s) over the wire.

I was also thinking, this solution is mostly intended for those running on a single server, since "server B" will not benefit from "server A"'s cache, which could result in an array of systems out of sync, ya?

@retr0h I'm revisiting this gem again after a long time. I didn't see your comments until now. I'm going to spend a bit of time updating deps and such and I'll see what I can do about testing with large amounts of data. And you're correct about this being designed for a single server solution.

@retr0h. This has become orphaned. If I need it or something like it again I'll take another look. 😜

Oh, I just closed out old issues.
