Hmmm, have you run benchmarks? For reads, it's going to be "fast": faster, I'd expect, than BerkleyDB, and more or less as fast as MySQL if indeed the queries are for simple indexed keys, significantly faster otherwise. I don't know anything about Cache::FastMap. (But I'll read up on it; sounds interesting!)
If you have lots of RAM, and your data is big, too, memcached will outperform MySQL because you can run several daemons and circumvent the process size limit problem. (Talking 32-bit here.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
