230 still the same in the server. You can get the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cas</span></code> value of a result by

233 The difference is that it uses the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">group_key</span></code> parameter to map objects to
234 particular servers.</p>
235 <p><a class="reference internal" href="#_CPPv413memcached_casP12memcached_stPKc6size_tPKc6size_t6time_t8uint32_t8uint64_t" title="memcached_cas"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">memcached_cas()</span></code></a> is tested with the <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_behavior.html#_CPPv4N20memcached_behavior_t26MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDPE" title="MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP</span></code></a> behavior
236 enabled. However, when using these operations with this behavior on, there are
237 limits to the size of the payload being sent to the server. The reason for
238 these limits is that the Memcached Server does not allow multi-datagram requests
239 and the current server implementation sets a datagram size to 1400 bytes. Due to
240 protocol overhead, the actual limit of the user supplied data is less than 1400
241 bytes and depends on the protocol in use as, well as the operation being
242 executed. When running with the binary protocol,
243 <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_behavior.html#_CPPv4N20memcached_behavior_t34MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOLE" title="MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOL"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOL</span></code></a>, the size of the key,value, flags and
244 expiry combined may not exceed 1368 bytes. When running with the ASCII protocol,
245 the exact limit fluctuates depending on which function is being executed and
246 whether the function is a cas operation or not. For non-cas ASCII set
247 operations, there are at least 1335 bytes available to split among the key,
248 key_prefix, and value; for cas ASCII operations there are at least 1318 bytes
249 available to split among the key, key_prefix and value. If the total size of the
250 command, including overhead, exceeds 1400 bytes, a <a class="reference internal" href="memcached_return_t.html#_CPPv4N18memcached_return_t23MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILUREE" title="MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILURE"><code class="xref cpp cpp-any docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILURE</span></code></a>
