If you want the speed advantages of in-memory caching but don't have the
capability of running Memcached, consider the local-memory cache backend. This
cache is multi-process and thread-safe. To use it, set ``CACHE_BACKEND`` to
``"locmem:///"``. For example::

Note that each process will have its own private cache instance, which means no
cross-process caching is possible. This obviously also means the local memory
