get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) may take longer than given timeout

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Spymemcached v2.7.1
Memcached v1.4.2-1ubuntu3

While running:

Future<Object> f = _memcachedClient.asyncGet(key);
Object res = f.get(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

f.get(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS) may take more than the specified timeout. (3 seconds 
and up).

I did not check whether I get a valid result or timeout exception when it 
happens.

During that event, I did not get any "connection lost" event.

Let me know if there is anything else I can do.
Thanks,

Is this under heavy load?  This is implemented by latching, which can be 
susceptible to context switches

I fire 10-20 requests at the same time (6 seconds).
Do you suggest I'll bulk them together? Or maybe 10-20 concurrent requests 
aren't too much?

It might be the case where I fire many get requests at the same time.
I moved it to bulkGetAsync. Will let you know if it solves the problem.
