The checking local file is faster than memcached, so:

     location / {
         error_page  404 = @memcache;
     }

     location @memcache {
         set   $memcached_key   "$uri?$args";
         memcached_pass    ...

         recursive_error_pages  on;

         error_page  404 = @upstream;
     }

     location @upstream {
         proxy_pass    ...

         error_page  404 = @upstream;
     }
