In a spring web project, if we are using a single cache server and different cache managers an eg annotation is 

@Cacheable(value = "configCache", key="#key")
@Cacheable(value = "envCache", key="#key")
...

and if we do

@CacheEvict(value = "configCache", allEntries=true)

and if we have enabled allowClear=true in the configuration, so will this only evict the configCache? or it will clear envCache as well?

We have seen many flush_all commands being executed in Amazon ElasticCache and majority of the items gets reclaimed. So is this because we are using evict allEntries?

If will also clear envCache if it's on the same memcached instance/server as configCache. Because memcached doesn't support namespaces only all keys can be removed from the instance.
