MemcacheQ is a straightforward mash-up of two very stable software stacks.. memcached and BerkeleyDB. The lines of code to accomplish it are trivial. So what.

It's 4000 lines of C code, not counting headers. Try again.

No.. the bdb.c file is 800 lines of trivial near-BDB example level code. The rest of it is from memcached core. Either way it's solid. Read the code.
