Hi all, I'm trying to run memcached but had some trouble with the connection limit. Already found that I need to use the '-c <num>' option to increase the # of maximum simultaneous connections. However, I have 200 webservers each with ~64 apache childs running (there may be peaks). If each process would create a persistent connection that would mean that each of my 10 memcached nodes have to handle 12,800 simultaneous connections. I guess that shouldn't be a problem, but the low default maximum of 1024 somewhat bothers me. Is it sane to start memcached with a limit of 40K connections, or is it likely that I'll run into other problems then? Your input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Robin
