According to the man page, this is the correct method to increase the item size limit.
By "the Warning" I presume you mean this: http://pastebin.com/jtdjda2D First of all, it's there for a reason: generally, if you think you need items larger than 1MB, you're probably framing the problem suboptimally for memcached. If possible, consider reframing the problem you're tackling so you can store more smaller items instead of one or a few larger items. Finally,, what do you mean by "not showing anything in progress"? What progress do you expect? memcached doesn't generally print anything out in normal operation. On an ubuntu box I have, when I run 'memcached -I 2m' then from another terminal run 'echo -ne "set foo 0 0 2000000\r\n$(printf "%0.s----------" {1..200000})\r\n" | nc localhost 11211' I get the expected output: STORED. So it works! ~Ryan On Feb 11, 2014, at 9:43 AM, Ratnesh Kumar Gupta <ratnesh10.in...@gmail.com> wrote: hi , i am working with Memcached 1.4.14 on ubuntu server. i am in need to increase the size of the item for storing the data in memcache. i am using the command for updating the size as $ memcached -I 2m but its just shows me the Warning and it does not showing anything in progress.
