Can you send what is the command you use to invoke memcached. eth0:0 is not really a virtual interface but an IP alias.

We have two VPS running on linode with a virtual ethernet connection
between them. The ifconfig info looks like the following.. (note the
name of the interface)

eth0:0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr fe:fd:ad:e6:95:fb
         inet addr:192.168.141.205  Bcast:192.168.255.255  Mask:

         UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
         Interrupt:28

Memcached seems to run ok when it is listening on 127.0.0.1, as soon
as i switch to the interface above it becomes unbearably slow!
This means I can't run my memcached servers in a cluster.
Even when I telnet in to do a "stats" sometimes the connection is
closed by memcached after a long pause before it even sends a
response.

When I did have each server running its own memcache instance on
127.0.0.1 (ie not clustered) I notice the follow coming up in the log
right before I had to restart memcache to get it to work again. Does
it mean anything to anyone? i notice some people have interesting ways
to deal with this issue.. like the following node.js snippet I found
on github: http://gist.github.com/322407

r...@li159-251:~# tail -f /var/log/memcached.log
event_add: No such file or directory
event_add: No such file or directory


Thanks in advance for any insights!
