Another, slightly more advanced script is memcached-keytrace.d:

:memcached::command-set,command-add,command-delete,command-get
/pid == $target && copyinstr(arg1) == "123456789"/
{
    trace(copyinstr(arg1));
}

END
{
}

This one will trace set, add, delete and get commands applied to one specific key:

Invoke as:

dtrace -s ~/memcached/dtrace/memcached-trace.d -p 24167

Then run a telnet session:

telnet system 11211
Trying 9.9.9.9...
Connected to system.
Escape character is '^]'.
abcdefghij
ERROR
set 123456789 0 0 10
abcdefghij
STORED
delete 123456789 0 0
DELETED
get 123456789 0 0 0
END

And the dtrace script reports:

CPU     ID                    FUNCTION:NAME
1 54165 complete_nread:command-set 123456789
  0  54159 process_delete_command:command-delete   123456789
  1  54160  process_get_command:command-get   123456789

Useful? Maybe...

For those of us who haven't truly unleashed the power of dtrace, can you describe the kinds of things we can learn from this (perhaps with scripts)?

The following patch adds a new configure-option (--enable-dtrace) that adds DTrace probes to various parts of memcached.

Please comment.

I discovered that I had some "leftovers" in this patch from before I fixed the comments regarding the large page support..

The attached version is replacement for the original patch.
