Can't you do something with outside profiling tools? For instance oprofile? http://oprofile.sourceforge.net/ That's a (linux) kernel-level profiler that can gather fairly useful bits of information without having to run a modified version of memcached and without having to run it permanently.

I can understand a set-up with replication rather than "sharding". In our situation we have only about 800MB of data in memcached, so there is hardly any need to have more than one instance... But it does get a fair amount of work, the average cmd_get's per second works out to about 1500 and it

Wouldn't more servers become increasingly (seen from the application) slower as you force your clients to connect to more servers? Assuming all machines have enough processing power and network bandwidth, I'd expect performance of the last of these variants to be best: 16x 1GB machines 8x 2

Am I reading you correctly, in that you want to set up a hot spare memcached-daemon on the same machine? To what purpose would you do that? Memcached is very stable (ours is running for a year now), so it basically won't die by itself. I don't really understand why you would want to kill it, b

What other rules are there in your iptables? I.e., aren't you just actually limiting connections via iptables or rules with similar behavior on other levels? Apart from that, it would be interesting to see what happens if you were to flip the roles of the two memcached-servers, to determine whet
