30 * own here.

33 * memcache_is_talloc().

56 * passed to the memcache functions below. This is a workaround for many
57 * situations where passing the cache everywhere would be a big hassle.

70 * Add a talloc object to the cache. The difference to memcache_add() is that
71 * when the objects is to be discared, talloc_free is called for it. Also
72 * talloc_move() ownership of the object to the cache.
74 * Please note that the current implementation has a fixed relationship
75 * between what cache subtypes store talloc objects and which ones store plain
76 * blobs. We can fix this, but for now we don't have a mixed use of blobs vs
77 * talloc objects in the cache types.
