Dear List,

I am currently trying to implement memcached in a testing environment to
see how it performs on my website www.melodramatic.com.  I've been
having terrible speed and db overload issues, so I'm hoping memcached
will help in this respect.

Unfortunately, implementation is a nightmare!

After finally getting libevent and memcached to act like they've been
installed correctly, I try running memcached with the following command
line:

memcached -vv -d -m 512 -l 10.0.0.100 -p 1337

It returns immediately with:

<3 server listening
memcached: kevent: Bad file descriptor

Now, the error seems simple enough, but I cannot for the life of me
figure out what I need to do in order to have a good file descriptor in
this situation.  I haven't found any documentation or similar threads to
help explain what I've done wrong. Something tells me it's a problem
with how I configured libevent, but I have been unable through trial and
error to figure out how I should be configuring libevent differently.

I'm attempting to install this on a FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE-p4 system.  Any
help and suggestions would be HUGELY appreciated.

Much Love,
Sara
