Thanks to Adam Dixon 216 <[email protected]> for the bug report and test case! 217 2182006-11-26 219 * Steven Grimm <[email protected]>: Performance improvements: 220 221 Dynamic sizing of hashtable to reduce collisions on very large 222 caches and conserve memory on small caches. 223 224 Only reposition items in the LRU queue once a minute, to reduce 225 overhead of accessing extremely frequently-used items. 226 227 Stop listening for new connections until an existing one closes 228 if we run out of available file descriptors. 229 230 Command parser refactoring: Add a single-pass tokenizer to cut 231 down on string scanning. Split the command processing into 232 separate functions for easier profiling and better readability. 233 Pass key lengths along with the keys in all API functions that 234 need keys, to avoid needing to call strlen() repeatedly. 235 2362006-11-25 237 * Steve Peters <[email protected]>: OpenBSD has a malloc.h, 238 but warns to use stdlib.h instead 239 2402006-11-22 241 * Steven Grimm <[email protected]>: Add support for multithreaded 242 execution.

(intertwined patch, committed all together) 291 <http://lists.danga.com/pipermail/memcached/2006-May/002164.html> 292 or see svn commit logs 293 2942006-04-30 295 * River Tarnell: autoconf work for Solaris 10. Brad: 296 merge and verify it works on Nexenta. 297 2982006-03-04 299 * avva: bucket/generation patch (old, but Brad's just finally 300 committing it) 301 3022006-01-01 303 * Brad Fitzpatrick <[email protected]>: allocate 1 slab per class 304 on start-up, to avoid confusing users with out-of-memory errors 305 later. this is 18 MB of allocation on start, unless max memory 306 allowed with -m is lower, in which case only the smaller slab 307 classes are allocated. 308 3092005-08-09 310 * Elizabeth Mattijsen <[email protected]>: needed a way to flush all 311 memcached backend servers, but not at exactly the same time (to 312 reduce load peaks), I've added some simple functionality to the 313 memcached protocol in the "flush_all" command that allows you to 314 specify a time at which the flush will actually occur (instead of 315 always at the moment the "flush_all" command is received). 316 3172005-05-25 318 * patch from Peter van Dijk <[email protected]> to make 319 stderr unbuffered, for running under daemontools 320 3212005-04-04 322 * patch from Don MacAskill <[email protected]> 'flush_all' doesn't 323 seem to work properly. Basically, if you try to add a key which 324 is present, but expired, the store fails but the old key is no 325 longer expired. 326 327 * release 1.1.12 328 3292005-01-14 330 * Date: Thu, 18 Nov 2004 15:25:59 -0600 331 From: David Phillips <[email protected]> 332 Here is a patch to configure.ac and Makefile.am to put the man page in 333 the correct location. Trying to install the man page from a 334 subdirectory results in the subdirectory being used in the install 335 path (it tries to install to doc/memcached.1). This is the correct 336 thing to do: 337 338 - create a Makefile.am in the doc directory that installs the man page 339 with man_MANS 340 - modify Makefile.am in the base directory to reference the doc 341 directory using SUBDIRS 342 - modify the AC_CONFIG_FILES macro in configure.ac to output the 343 Makefile in doc 344 345 3462005-01-14 347 * pidfile saving support from Lisa Seelye <[email protected]>, sent 348 Jan 13, 2005 349 3502005-01-14 351 * don't delete libevent events that haven't been added (the deltimer) 352 patch from Ted Schundler <[email protected]> 353 3542004-12-10 355 * document -M and -r in manpage (Doug Porter <[email protected]>) 356 3572004-07-22 358 * fix buffer overflow in items.c with 250 byte keys along with 359 other info on the same line going into a 256 byte char[]. 360 thanks to Andrei Nigmatulin <[email protected]> 361 3622004-06-15 363 * immediate deletes weren't being unlinked a few seconds, 364 preventing "add" commands to the same key in that time period. 365 thanks to Michael Alan Dorman <[email protected]> for the 366 bug report and demo script. 367 3682004-04-30 369 * released 1.1.11 370 3712004-04-24 372 * Avva: Add a new command line option: -r , to maximize core file 373 limit. 374 3752004-03-31 376 * Avva: Use getrlimit and setrlimit to set limits for number of 377 simultaneously open file descriptors. Get the current limits and 378 try to raise them if they're not enough for the specified (or the 379 default) setting of max connections. 380 3812004-02-24 382 * Adds a '-M' flag to turn off tossing items from the cache. 383 (Jason Titus <[email protected]>) 384 3852004-02-19 (Evan) 386 * Install manpage on "make install", etc. 387 3882003-12-30 (Brad) 389 * remove static build stuff. interferes with PAM setuid stuff 390 and was only included as a possible fix with the old memory 391 allocator. really shouldn't make a difference. 392 * add Jay Bonci's Debian scripts and manpage 393 * release version 1.1.10 394 3952003-12-01 (Avva) 396 * New command: flush_all, causes all existing items to 397 be invalidated immediately (without deleting them from 398 memory, merely causing memcached to no longer return them). 3992003-10-23 400 * Shift init code around to fix daemon mode on FreeBSD, 401 * and drop root only after creating the server socket (to 402 * allow the use of privileged ports) 403 * version 1.1.10pre 404 4052003-10-09 406 * BSD compile fixes from Ryan T. Dean 407 * version 1.1.9 408 4092003-09-29 410 * ignore SIGPIPE at start instead of crashing in rare cases it 411 comes up. no other code had to be modified, since everything 412 else is already dead-connection-aware. (avva) 413 4142003-09-09 (Avva, Lisa Marie Seelye <[email protected]>) 415 * setuid support 416 4172003-09-05 (Avva) 418 * accept all new connections in the same event (so we work with ET epoll) 419 * mark all items as clsid=0 after slab page reassignment to please future 420 asserts (on the road to making slab page reassignment work fully) 421 4222003-08-12 (Brad Fitzpatrick) 423 * use TCP_CORK on Linux or TCP_PUSH on BSD 424 * only use TCP_NODELAY when we don't have alternatives 425 4262003-08-10 427 * disable Nagel's Algorithm (TCP_NODELAY) for better performance (avva) 428 4292003-08-10 430 * support multiple levels of verbosity (-vv) 431 4322003-08-10 (Evan Martin) 433 * Makefile.am: debug, optimization, and static flags are controlled 434 by the configure script. 435 * configure.ac: 436 - allow specifying libevent directory with --with-libevent=DIR 437 - check for malloc.h (unavailable on BSDs) 438 - check for socklen_t (unavailable on OSX) 439 * assoc.c, items.c, slabs.c: Remove some unused headers. 440 * memcached.c: allow for nonexistence of malloc.h; #define a POSIX 441 macro to import mlockall flags. 442 4432003-07-29 444 * version 1.1.7 445 * big bug fix: item exptime 0 meant expire immediately, not never 446 * version 1.1.8 447 4482003-07-22 449 * make 'delete' take second arg, of time to refuse new add/replace 450 * set/add/replace/delete can all take abs or delta time (delta can't 451 be larger than a month) 452 4532003-07-21 454 * added doc/protocol.txt 455 4562003-07-01 457 * report CPU usage in stats 458 4592003-06-30 460 * version 1.1.6 461 * fix a number of obscure bugs 462 * more stats reporting 463 4642003-06-10 465 * removing use of Judy; use a hash.
