In memcache? Not unless you never restart it I guess. Memcache is not a persistence mechanism, it's just pretending to be one for long enough to handle session-oriented data, and our API doesn't distinguish those cases so that the code doesn't have to.

There has always (almost anyway) been such an option.

Pairwise IDs have to be much more robustly stored than consent records, so I would say if you manage to do one, you may as well do the other. The problem is getting any of it to work without compromising HA.
