Updates to the asyncronous memcached client

Fri, Jun 18, 2010 1-minute read

This evening I updated the asyncronous memcached client that I am building.

I implemented basic performance counters, so the client will populate performance counters for the following items:

 

  • Average wait time for a free client socket
  • Total cache operations per second
  • Adds per second
  • Appends per second
  • CAS per second
  • Deletes per second
  • Prepends per second
  • Replaces per second
  • Sets per second
  • Errors per second

 

The performance counters also gave me a nice way to assess the performance of the client and with a soak test program running full throttle, only sleeping one ms between interations and using 50 threads and 25 socket, the code is capable of doing almost 20.000 add operations per second against one memcached server.

That's pretty awesome if you ask me :)
