Comparison of memcache, redis and ehcache as distributed caching framework [closed]

Question

One of the decisions I need to make is what caching framework to use in my system. With so many to choose from, I am currently investigating redis, ehcache and memcached.

Can anyone point to performance benchmarks of these three particular frameworks? Also an overview of their features - I am particularly interested in disadvantages, ie. situations where you would use one over the other.
