Dude, awesome. It's funny, because this is what I was planning to do. Now I have to figure out something else to re-reinvent. :D

I know all about it. :)
Usually my process of innovation involves thinking of something really awesome, doing a google search and spending the rest of my day evaluating implementations of things from people who think them out far better than I do.

Yes. My code may be valuable to that project, but the goals are different.
My goal was not to produce a memcached server, but a memcached protocol parser/dispatcher.
The cacherl guys are welcome to add my code to their project for binary protocol support.

how does your memcached implementation deal with memory fragmentation problems?

That's not so much what it does. The primary point is to provide a bridge to other services. It's the storage services that have to deal with memory fragmentation.

It's a gift and a curse.

If you care about such things, use the other server I work on: http://code.google.com/p/memcached/ :)
