we have memcached.

Does memcached provide a permanent store?

Extension:Cassandra is just a text store. SQL + KV-store != NoSQL.

But it's webscale! Outrageous!

Per http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/1016320617/mongodb-is-web-scale we should
aim for /dev/null instead.

Why not just support the BLACKHOLE storage engine ( http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/blackhole-storage-engine.html ) in MySQL ? Is MongoDB more efficient at storing no data ?
What about /dev/null ? Is it better or worse than MongoDB ?
If it is, I support this featreq.
