Hey, The following is my branch of changes for 1.2.5. I scaled back my intentions (due to lack of time this month) and will update documentation after the -rc goes out. They're tiny.
These changes have not been applied to trunk yet. They are focused on allowing better troubleshooting of eviction and out of memory conditions. Also fixes a minor performance issue in item_alloc(). I took a long time to try to understand what's going on here, and have tested it locally pretty thoroughly. Please give them a once over for sanity's sake :) -Dormando
