Try to save some $$ by using a smaller Memcached node #46

As mentioned here, ElastiCache is costing us something like $5/day at current load, and current load is really low. I'm using a node of type r5.large when I could probably get away with a t2.small given our memory footprint. I'm going to try making that change and see if it saves some $$.
