Hi, Since the best performance are usually achieved with #threads = #cores and its recommended to run memcached with #worker_threads = #cores. I was wondering why does memcached have a specific thread to accept new connections rather than have the worker threads accept new connections?
One possible explanation I found is the Thundering_herd_problem<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thundering_herd_problem>. But I would imagine that CPU cycles would be wasted on accept only on otherwise idle core which I would Imagine is not an issue for most installations, am I wrong? I was wondering If any one could elaborate on this? Was it discussed in the past? Is accepting new connections a rare enough event that it doesn't make a difference?
