 ==== Working With Cached Recordsets ==== ==== Working With Cached Recordsets ====
 ADOdb supports the ability to work with cached query results, either through storing the results on local disks, or via the use of a [[http://memcached.org|Memcached Server]]. The functions below work the same as their non-caching equivalents, but also check for the availabiltiy of cached results first. This can help reduce database load. ADOdb supports the ability to work with cached query results, either through storing the results on local disks, or via the use of a [[http://memcached.org|Memcached Server]].
