DESCRIPTION
-----------
`libmemcached` performs operations on a list of hosts. The order of
these hosts determine routing to keys. Functions are provided to add keys to
-memcached_st structures. To manipulate lists of servers see
-memcached_server_st(3).

:func:`memcached_server_count` provides you a count of the current number of
servers being used by a :type:`memcached_st` structure.
