/**
 * Optimized attachment_url_to_postid using pre_attachment_url_to_postid for improved performance with Memcached.
 *
 * Why this helps:
 * - **Reduced Database Load:** By caching attachment IDs, we significantly decrease the number of queries to the wp_postmeta table.
 * - **Faster Response Times:** Cached results from Memcached are returned instantly, improving page load speeds.
 * - **Efficient Cache Usage:** wp_cache_set ensures optimal cache hit rates in memory.
 * - **Scalable Solution:** Ideal for large sites with high traffic, reducing MySQL CPU spikes caused by repetitive queries.
