memchached connections

Hello,

python-memcached badly handles connections during a flush on reconnect and
so connections can grow up exponentially [1].

I don't know if it is the same issue that you faced but it could be a track
to follow.

On oslo.cache a fix has been submitted but it is not yet merged [2].
