Hi,

Is there a memcache module implementation with multi-get support?

Thanks,

I think it already supports it if you pass an array of keys to the  
memc:get() function

Yes, it does.

Below is a test case for this feature:

The lua-resty-memcached library is not an nginx module itself, but  
rather a (nonblocking) Lua library that is intended to be used with  
the ngx\_lua module 🙂
