Description

We use evcache with one memcache server node. We find there are much EVCache.set/delete operations which need more than 500ms.
I'm not sure if the performance is up to the limitation. Here are some monitor log.
Key total number in memcache: 700k
QPS: 400 to 600

Research direction

Start by reviewing the EVCache set/delete request path and the provided monitor figures: 700k keys, 400–600 QPS, and operations exceeding 500ms. The issue names no files, tests, or specific expected change; done would require identifying the cause of the latency and defining a reproducible performance improvement.
