Hi fellow Rubyists.
I'm happy to announce the initial release of a Ruby client library for memcached, a high-performance distributed memory cache.
Memcached is used to alleviate database load by caching oft-used values in network-accessible memory space, and is used behind several high-traffic dynamic web sites like LiveJournal, Slashdot, WikiPedia, and others.
You can find out more about memcached here:
http://www.danga.com/memcached/
You can find more information about the Ruby client library at the project page:

or download it directly:

Comments, questions, and suggestions welcomed.
