web application-level caching

[Chris Gray]

Is there a Python module comparable in functionality to the PEAR
Cache_Lite package for PHP?

I've been doing some Googling to little avail. I'm experimenting with
Python CGI to learn various techniques at a low level and I'm adapting a
model that uses PHP.

Any info about application-level caching (or pointers to where to find
such info) would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
