Testing
The memcache module is a critical component of even the largest Drupal websites, so we take testing seriously. We have done comprehensive load testing of this release to ensure that there have been no performance regressions. Our load tests are freely available at https://github.com/tag1consulting/drupal-loadtest. There you will find scripts that assist in pre-populating a site with data and running a Locust loadtest suite against the test website. While the tests aren’t comprehensive and only focus on common core functionality, they provide fantastic insight and detail into the performance differences between releases.
