## Setting Memory Usage
### Configuration

To customize the configuration of the memcached server, first obtain the upstream configuration options from the container:

```console
$ docker run --name my-memcache -d %%IMAGE%% memcached -m 64
$ docker run --rm %%IMAGE%% -h
```

This would set the Memcached server to use 64 megabytes for storage.
Using `docker run`:

```console
$ docker run --name my-memcache -d %%IMAGE%% memcached --memory-limit=64
```

or using Docker Compose:

```yaml
services:
memcached:
image: %%IMAGE%%
command:
- --conn-limit=1024
- --memory-limit=64
- --threads=4
```

For infomation on configuring your memcached server, see the extensive [wiki](https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki).
