Performance Note
Although the Memcache driver works well for small numbers of points, a REDIS or AMQP server will often be a much more efficient option when dealing with large numbers of points.
This is because those servers work on a subscription basis - rather than needing to be polled with constant requests, they are notified when new values are available.
