Description: =============
        antidogpiling
        =============
        
        The antidogpiling framework is a generic set of functionality for implementing anti-dogpiled caching. It currently includes completed implementations for all the Django 1.2 and 1.3 cache backends.
        
        Dogpiling is the effect you get when a cached value times out, and everyone rushes to create a new value. The anti-dogpiling tries to mitigate this by serving the old value while waiting for a few (ideally one) who are let through to produce a new value.
        
        Benefits of this package:
        
        - It provides the generic functionality
        - It wraps the cached data in a custom object and not in a tuple or dict or so, making it possible to actually cache tuples or dicts which would potentially conflict with the internal handling
        - It supports all Django 1.2 and 1.3 cache backends, without re-implementing any Django functionality
        
        Using the anti-dogpiled Django 1.2 backends
        ===========================================
        
        Simply set the ``CACHE_BACKEND`` setting to point to the right module. A few examples::
        
          CACHE_BACKEND = 'antidogpiling.django.memcached://127.0.0.1:11211/'
          CACHE_BACKEND = 'antidogpiling.django.filebased:///var/tmp/django_cache'
        
        Using the anti-dogpiled Django 1.3 backends
        ===========================================
        
        Simply replace the ``BACKEND`` reference with the corresponding anti-dogpiled backend. An example::
        
          CACHES = {
              'default': {
                  'BACKEND': 'antidogpiling.django.memcached.MemcachedCache',
                  'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211'.
              }
          }
