md5 is not guaranteed to be unique, that is to say, two seperate

memcache key has a limitation that is shorter than the possible
request_uri ?

Thanks Dave,
The problem is that memcached will not allow certain characters in the
key name - so I thought it might be simpler to just store the md5 of the
actual request_uri.
Thanks,
