Demonstrating Out-of-the-box Performance Gains with memcached-1.3.1
Blogger Uses Single-socket UltraSPARC T2 Processor
The blog entry “Scaling Memcached: 500,000+ Operations/Second with a Single-Socket UltraSPARC T2″ explores single-instance memcached scalability for a few usage patterns. Blogger Zoran Radovic illustrates how to achieve out-of-the-box (no custom OS rewrites or networking tuning required) performance with 10G networking hardware and one single-socket UltraSPARC T2-based server with 8 cores and 8 threads per core (64 threads on a chip).
