15.6.4.5. memcached Detail Statistics

For memcached 1.3.x and higher, you can enable and obtain detailed statistics about the get, set, and del operations on theindividual keys stored in the cache, and determine whether the attempts hit (found) a particular key. These operations are only recorded while the detailed stats analysis is turned on.

To enable detailed statistics, you must send the stats detail on command to the memcached server:

$ telnet localhost 11211Trying 127.0.0.1...Connected to tiger.Escape character is '^]'.stats detail onOK

Individual statistics are recorded for every get, set and del operation on a key, including keys that are not currently stored in the server. For example, if an attempt is made to obtain the value of key abckey and it does not exist, the get operating on the specified key are recorded while detailed statistics are in effect, even if the key is not currently stored. The hits, that is, the number of get or del operations for a key that exists in the server are also counted.

To turn detailed statistics off, send the stats detail off command to the memcached server:

$ telnet localhost 11211Trying 127.0.0.1...Connected to tiger.Escape character is '^]'.stats detail onOK

To obtain the detailed statistics recorded during the process, send the stats detail dump command to the memcached server:

stats detail dumpPREFIX hykkey get 0 hit 0 set 1 del 0PREFIX xyzkey get 0 hit 0 set 1 del 0PREFIX yukkey get 1 hit 0 set 0 del 0PREFIX abckey get 3 hit 3 set 1 del 0END

You can use the detailed statistics information to determine whether your memcached clients are using a large number of keys that do not exist in the server by comparing the hit and get or del counts. Because the information is recorded by key, you can also determine whether the failures or operations are clustered around specific keys.
