[horde] memcache session handler

We switched to the new memcache session handler this weekend, and it
was fine for a couple of days, but then exploded spectacularly
yesterday afternoon. We had 15 servers defined (a small instance of
memcache running on each of the webservers in our webmail pool).
The load on the machines were each less than 0.5, but the application
became super unresponsive in the browser. If users did get an error, it
was "No connections available for memcached SessionHandler." (which
looks like it's in _getConForId()). Sometimes, after spinning for
several minutes, users would get dropped in the horde portal screen.
Since we had to turn the log level way down to prevent the session
handler from core dumping, I don't have a lot to go on.
Any ideas what would trigger this situation and how it could be avoided
in the future?
