Nbr of open connections

[jacopsd]

Switching from django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache to django_bmemcached.memcached.BMemcached, we noticed the number of open connections to the database being used and to the cache memory increases significantly. (from 3 to > 30)

Is there a known reason for this and can It be changed?

Hi there, from the cache perspective, there should be no increased number of connections to the database as it has no access whatsoever to other configurations besided the ones for caching
