Hi Jan, Thank you for your memcached script! Though I think yours is better written (that open bash socket thing is awesome!), I also wrote one that submits slightly different metrics. Instead of submitting total gets and misses, it maintains a state file and submits gets/sec sets/sec, hits/sec, and a hit%. I find the hit% illustrative, as it helps to indicate when you are using your cache most effectively. One thing that bugs be about memcached is that it seems the number of items does not decrement when an item expires, so the number of items (and the number of bytes used) simply increases until its storage limit is reached, regardless of whether those items are current.
Jan, if you would like to incorporate some of those metrics into your script, mine resides at http://ben.hartshorne.net/ganglia/ along with several other gmetric scripts. I think I might rewrite some of them soon though to take advantage of that cool bash socket thing. I like your case statement much better than my array assignment. The array assignment breaks dependent on the memcached version (between 1.1.12 and 1.1.13 they added a parameter to the output of the stats command). -ben p.s. may I mirror your mcd script on my site as well?
