Flow purge is broken
Open, HighPublic

Description

It doesn't look like Flow purge will work, since rEFLW4548ada7a9c5: Update Flow caching strategy for multi DC.

It works by putting in place a mock 'memcache' in the container, then watching to see what keys are read. It then knows from that which keys to evict.

Now, the 'memcache' object is hardly used by anything, so this won't work.
