I had stragne statistics on one memcached servers. I had to look what it’s doing there. I found such commands that may be used to sniff, extract and make statistics from running memcached server. Debug GET commands tcpflow -c dst port 11211 | cut -b46- | grep ^get cut command will remove 46 bytes at beginning of every string (src, dst, port).

It happen to me all the time that one of developers notifies me about some kind of problem that I can’t confirm from my account. Sometimes it was because of bad ssh keys configuration, other times file permissions, mostly such stuff. It’s sometimes convenient to “enter into someone’s shoes” to see what’s going on there.

It’s faster when crating backups and a lot faster when restoring them - they’re binary so there is no need to reevaluate all SQL create tables/inserts/etc. Backups also include my.cnf config file so restoring on other machine should be easy. ...
