Subject: gc is also a unwanted cache, so use it. With this, memcache with
 short expires is no longer needed

+    ;     This may theoretically occur with networked vendor systems and

Subject: Add a MaxRetries option to the inventory connector. If clustered
 services are used, another try would go to another server and may succeed.
