To get the items statistics, use the
stats items command, or the API equivalent.
The items statistics give information about
the individual items allocated within a given slab class.
STAT items:2:number 1 STAT items:2:age 452 STAT items:2:evicted 0 STAT items:2:outofmemory 0 STAT items:27:number 1 STAT items:27:age 452 STAT items:27:evicted 0 STAT items:27:outofmemory 0
The prefix number against each statistics relates to the
corresponding chunk size, as returned by the stats
slabs statistics. The result is a display of the
number of items stored within each chunk within each slab size,
and specific statistics about their age, eviction counts, and
out of memory counts. A summary of the statistics is given in
the following table.
| Statistic | Description |
|---|---|
| number | The number of items currently stored in this slab class. |
| age | The age of the oldest item within the slab class, in seconds. |
| evicted | The number of items evicted to make way for new entries. |
| outofmemory | The number of items for this slab class that have triggered an out of
memory error (only value when the -M
command line option is in effect). |
Item level statistics can be used to determine how many items are stored within a given slab and their freshness and recycle rate. You can use this to help identify whether there are certain slab classes that are triggering a much larger number of evictions that others.
