If you are looking for performance, memcached_set() with non-blocking IO is
the fastest way to store data on the server.
+All of the above functions are supported with the C<MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP>
+behavior enabled. But when using these operations with this behavior on, there
+are limits to the size of the payload being sent to the server. The reason for
+these limits is that the Memcahed Server does not allow multi-datagram requests
+and the current server implementation sets a datagram size to 1400 bytes. Due
+to protocol overhead, the actual limit of the user supplied data is less than
+1400 bytes and depends on the protocol in use as well as the operation being
+executed. When running with the binary protocol, C< MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOL>,
+the size of the key,value, flags and expiry combined may not exceed 1368 bytes.
+When running with the ASCII protocol, the exact limit fluctuates depending on
+which function is being executed and whether the function is a cas operation
+or not. For non-cas ASCII set operations, there are at least 1335 bytes available
+to split among the key, key_prefix, and value; for cas ASCII operations there are
+at least 1318 bytes available to split among the key, key_prefix and value. If the
+total size of the command, including overhead, exceeds 1400 bytes, a C<MEMCACHED_WRITE_FAILURE>
+will be returned.

=head1 RETURN
-All methods return a value of type C<memcached_return>.
+All methods return a value of type C<memcached_return_t>.
On success the value will be C<MEMCACHED_SUCCESS>.
Use memcached_strerror() to translate this value to a printable string.
