Hello,

We have absolutely the same issue on 64bit linux with 8Gb of memory (CentOS 5.1 x86_64)
memcached -m 2048 -c 1024 -d -P /var/run/memcached.pid -p 11211 -u nobody
libevent-1.1a
memcached-1.2.5 or 1.2.4

Hello,

This is probably the same problem I reported last August:

Hey,

Thanks for the report!

Is this a problem you can reproduce? If so, can you try 1.2.4? Or even 1.2.2 ? All in threaded mode? Does it happen with 1.2.5 in non-threaded mode?

I can't recall anything else which would have touched that code recently, so it's very odd that it breaks for you. Perhaps you just found the magic combination :)

I'd like to get a hold of the core file if that's not too much trouble.

Hi,

This morning we switched to 1.2.5 memcached from an ancient version and running on 2 machines both X86_64 with 7000MB for memcached. The servers worked fine until one of them reached about 2.8GB~ of allocated memory. It went into a busy loop and other 3 threads were waiting for a mutex. Didn't accept anymore connections etc. Heres some info on the systems,versions and GDB stuff.

Running RHEL with 2.6.18. libevent is 1.4.2-rc, memcached 1.2.5 release.
Started with:
-m 7000 -c 8192 -d -P /var/run/memcached.pid -p 11211 -u memcached

Attached GDB and this was the state it was in:

As you can see the it->h_next is pointing to the same place as it thus its looping forever. I made a core of it so I can get additional info as needed.
