Benchmarking binprot is nearly useless: there's nothing inherent in the protocol which makes it any faster for raw requests/responses. It does give your application more flexiblity on doing your gets/sets. IE: noreply commands for issuing sets without waiting for the response. You can also pack

While things like memslap and such will show very large gains, your application may never see them. In my testing of my application, using the binary protocol showed no noticable difference in performance. That is simply because memcached is not the bottleneck in my application. I highly doubt

Have there been any benchmarks about packet sizes for text vs binary communication to memcached? And, what sort of general performance gains one can expect by switching to binary protocol. Thanks! -Manish -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups
