Testing PHP/MySQL Applications with PHPUnit/DbUnit - Sebastian Bergmann
Here is the presentation material I used for my "Testing PHP/MySQL Applications with PHPUnit/DbUnit" presentation at the MySQL Conference in Santa Clara, CA today.
Have you ever wondered how optimized your Memcached installation is? There is a common misconception that one doesn't have to think too deeply about Memcached performance, but that is not true. If your setup is inefficient, you could:
* Burn Memory
* Waste Network Round-Trips
* Store Keys That Never Get Retrieved
* Have a Low Cache Hit Ratio (i.e. query MySQL too much)
* Suffer a fate too horrible to contemplate.Percona does a lot of consulting around Memcached, so we try to take a quantitative, scientific approach to measuring memcached performance, just like everything else we do.
