摘录自作者的一段话 A final optimization worth noting is that the protocol allows fetching multiple keys at once. This is useful if your application knows it needs to load a few hundred keys. Instead of retrieving them all sequentially, which would take a fraction of a second in network round-trips, the application can fetch them all in one request. When necessary, the client libraries automatically split multi-key loads from the application into separate parallel multi-key loads to the Memcached instances. Alternatively, applications can provide explicit hash values with keys to keep groups of data on the same instance. That also saves the client library a bit of CPU time by not needing to calculate hash values.
