doesn't match the contents certainly. One point of note was that the performance on Sparc was less than performance on other CPUs, so Sun/Oracle were the most hit. They made no attempt to resolve that in more normal ways, nor did they even point out their hardware had come out poorly on that. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services

Scalability and benchmarks

2010-06-30 Thread Simon Riggs
I've seen some FUD from people claiming that memcached doesn't scale very well on multiple CPUs, which surprised me. Is there an accepted benchmark we can use to examine performance in more detail? Does anybody have any testing results in that area? Thanks, -- Simon Riggs

Re: sporadic high max response times and client timeout strategies

y worst response time in the whole profile. It would be useful to see all of the requests above a threshold, so we can see if a pattern exists and to see how whether this occurs in groups. Are the connections all equally and constantly busy, or are some connections idle for much of the time?
