 * Hello Devs, hope I am finding you well.
    I recently started utilizing memcached
   on my site, and I just noticed that a “Sweep” of both Options and Database fails
   to clear. Counts for the two stay at 69 and 28.
 * Is this normal behavior? I have not yet updated the WP Core to 6.1, would I expect
   the same type behavior from the new WP version 6.1 pertaining to “Database Caching”?
 * Thanks for taking the time with me here.

 * Hello,
 * The options sweep is for transient. So if you are using Memcache, it will be 
   stored there and WP-Sweep will not touch it since it will auto-expire after some
   time.
 * Database sweep does not prune any data, it just run the MySQL Optimize Query.
