So s3 is like memcached now but slower.

The ability to do suffix based deletion would be nice since I lacked the foresight to prefix my thumbnails with their dimension. Although I could wipe all my thumbnails and rebuild them on the fly...

Or like a more intelligent non-POSIX compliant filesystem accessible via HTTP/HTTPS.
