Hi!
So what is this? It is a library in C for connecting to memcached servers
(http://danga.com/memcached/). It is also a collection of utilities designed
to work with memcached.
memcat - Copy the value of a key to standard output
memflush - Flush the contents of your servers.
memrm - Remove a key(s) from the server.
memstat - Dump the stats of your servers to standard output
memslap - Load generation utility (benchmark!)
The library is in production in many locations (upwards to 1000+ nodes).
The project has information here: http://libmemcached.org/
Documentation can be found here: http://docs.libmemcached.org/
Want to contribute? If you write more then three good patches, then I will
just ask you to commit directly to the tree. I am happy to have additional
people work on this project. Please checkout README.FIRST.
You will need a C99 compiler in order to compile this library. Currently we
actively support Linux, MacOSX, FreeBSD, and Solaris. A Windows port is
currently not supported, but one is listed on the homepage that is supported
by someone in the community.
If you are looking for answers to your questions please check out the
mailing list at:
