Intro / Busy loop and blocking threads on 1.2.5

[Michael D'Agosta]

Hello,

New to the list - hi people. I was reading a thread from April:
   http://lists.danga.com/pipermail/memcached/2008-April/006683.html

It seems that during busy times, one of our memcached instances will stop 
accepting new connections; when I run telnet host port, I don't get a prompt. 
It's MC 1.2.5 on CentOS 4.6 w/ libevent 1.1a. We didn't compile in threading 
before, so I'm giving that a test drive as I type.

Did anyone discover solutions or workarounds to the problem?

Thanks in advance,

Mike
