Hi all,
I'm stumped, so I thought I'd ask a smart crowd about my memcache problem. I've tried attached some graphs, but lists.danga.com is against that... so I'll just describe what I'm seeing and if you want graphs let me know and I'll forward them out. Let me give you a bit of background... We have a web farm of about 15 machines. They're all identical LAMP boxes with traffic sent round robin. 4 of these machines are running memcache. Pretty simple setup. At the moment most of the machines are pushing 1-6Mbps, but web4 is pushing 10-60Mbps. I started to do some investigative work - I thought I'd see either 10x more data stored on web4, or 10x more requests per second. Looking at the graphs though they're all roughly identical in storage size (~25Mb total for all cached items), reqs per sec (~800), and cached items (~65k). So I'm pretty much at a loss as to how I can be pushing 10x traffic on web4 when everything else is identical. Any suggestions (what/how to log, past experience, etc...)? Much appreciated. Darryl
