[Mono-list] Caching data

[Antonello Provenzano]

Andrus,

A solution, known just to few skilled developers, is to use memcached
server with a C# client.
Make a research on Google about this two issues and you will find
"exactly" what are you looking for. Another solution is to write your
own cache manager to store data into the client filesystem and check
for expiration and evictions average: it depends on the context you
want to use the cache for.

Cheers.
Antonello
