# Memcached
Memcached is a high performance multithreaded event-based key/value cache
store intended to be used in a distributed system.
See: https://memcached.org/about
A fun story explaining usage: https://memcached.org/tutorial
If you're having trouble, try the wiki: https://memcached.org/wiki
If you're trying to troubleshoot odd behavior or timeouts, see:
https://memcached.org/timeouts
https://memcached.org/ is a good resource in general. Please use the mailing
list to ask questions, github issues aren't seen by everyone!
## Dependencies
* libevent - https://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/ (libevent-dev)
* libseccomp (optional, experimental, linux) - enables process restrictions for
better security. Tested only on x86-64 architectures.
* openssl (optional) - enables TLS support. need relatively up to date
version. pkg-config is needed to find openssl dependencies (such as -lz).
## Environment
Be warned that the -k (mlockall) option to memcached might be
dangerous when using a large cache. Just make sure the memcached machines
don't swap. memcached does non-blocking network I/O, but not disk. (it
should never go to disk, or you've lost the whole point of it)
## Build status
See https://build.memcached.org/ for multi-platform regression testing status.
## Bug reports
Feel free to use the issue tracker on github.
**If you are reporting a security bug** please contact a maintainer privately.
We follow responsible disclosure: we handle reports privately, prepare a
patch, allow notifications to vendor lists. Then we push a fix release and your
bug can be posted publicly with credit in our release notes and commit
history.
