The -m value is the amount of space memcached will use for key/value
storage. So, there is overhead for the daemon and connections.

Hello everyone,
I started memcached with:
memcached -u root -k -d -m 4000 -v>>m.log 2>&1
and after I inserted tens of millions of keys, the "top" command shows
that the "RES" memory of memcached is about 5.5GB which is much more
than what I specified with "-m". I think "RES" is the amount of what
memcached has locked because this number kept increasing when I was
inserting keys. So is this desired behavior of memcached? Should
memcached obey to the "-m" memory limit when you turned on memory
lock?
Thanks,
