This is a (pure) Go client for Memcached. It supports the binary Memcached protocol, SASL authentication and Compression. It's thread-safe. It allows connections to entire Memcached clusters and supports connection pools, timeouts, and failover.
Module-aware mode:

}There is nearly coverage of the Memcached protocol.
The biggest missing protocol feature is support for multi_get and other
batched operations.
There is also no support for asynchronous IO.
Right now we use a single per-connection mutex and don't support pipe-lining any operations. There is however support for connection pools which should make up for it.
We are happy to receive bug reports, fixes, documentation enhancements, and other improvements.
Please report bugs via the github issue tracker.
