I wonder how memcached caches a list of objects internally? 

Does it serializes the object list and stick it in the cache, or it serializes each individual object, and stick them in keys but all sharing a common signature so they can be retrieved together later on? 

Thanks,

David

There is no such concept as a list of objects in memcached. There's only keys and values, and you can only retrieve a value if you know the key.
