Re: Stats curr_item is not updated dynamically even if object expires

[jakub.lopuszan...@nasza-klasa.pl]

Hi Pankaj,
Here at nasza-klasa.pl we use a patch that I have described in this
post: 
http://groups.google.com/group/memcached/browse_thread/thread/31d34fbf4a3184ef#
This patch performs the garbage collection eagerly, wich as a by
product gives you a curr_item which is always equal to nonexpired
elements count.
We have been using this to monitor the real memory consumption on
memcached servers, for over 3 months now without any problems.
