memcached_set(), memcached_add(), and memcached_replace() are all used to
store information on the server. All methods take a key, and its length to
store the object. Keys are currently limited to 250 characters by the
-memcached(1) server. You must also supply a value and a length. Optionally you
-may tests an expiration time for the object and a 16 byte value (it is

meant to be used as a bitmap).
memcached_set() will write an object to the server. If an object already
memcached_set_by_key(), memcached_add_by_key(), memcached_replace_by_key(),
memcached_prepend_by_key(), memcached_append_by_key_by_key(),
memcached_cas_by_key() methods all behave in a similar method as the non key
-methods. The difference is that they use their master_key parameter to map
+methods. The difference is that they use their group_key parameter to map
objects to particular servers.
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 testsed with the \ ``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
+these limits is that the Memcached 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
+1400 bytes and depends on the protocol in use as, well as the operation being
executed. When running with the binary protocol, \ `` 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
