Hello all. I'm just beginning to play with memcache, and I read somewhere that talked about some inefficiencies with the slab allocator. I'm not too concerned at the moment, but I was wondering if you could help me monitor that? I've looked through some of the basic stats and can see how much memory has been allocated, but I can't see how much is actually being used.
You may want to look at "stats slabs".
