# memcached default config file # 2003 - Jay Bonci # This configuration file is read by the start-memcached script provided as # part of the Debian GNU/Linux distribution. # Run memcached as a daemon. This command is implied, and is not needed for the # daemon to run. See the README.Debian that comes with this package for more # information. -d # Log memcached's output to /var/log/memcached logfile /var/log/memcached.log # Be verbose # -v # Be even more verbose (print client commands as well) # -vv # Start with a cap of 64 megs of memory. It's reasonable, and the daemon default # Note that the daemon will grow to this size, but does not start out holding this much # memory -m {{ mc_cachesize }} # Default connection port is 11211 -p {{ mc_port }} # Run the daemon as root. The start-memcached will default to running as root if no # -u command is present in this config file -u nobody # Specify which IP address to listen on. The default is to listen on all IP addresses # This parameter is one of the only security measures that memcached has, so make sure # it's listening on a firewalled interface. -l {{ mc_ipaddress }} # Limit the number of simultaneous incoming connections. The daemon default is 1024 -c {{ mc_maxconn }} # Lock down all paged memory. Consult with the README and homepage before you do this # -k # Return error when memory is exhausted (rather than removing items) # -M # Maximize core file limit # -r
