Increase statsD cache

[kira510]

Hi,
I successfully installed StatsD on linux machine and it is working fine. Can you tell me how i can know how much cache size is and how much is being used and how this parameter can be varied.
Am new to this so please bear with me.

Thanks in advance

It is a combination of your flush interval, data points per second, stats name (length) and type.
Each gauge and count have only one value which means 8 bytes value.
Each timing and set data point can have a few values 8 bytes for each timing, varies for set (depends on data length).
Then take into account of your key length, 2 bytes for each characters.

Edit: taking into account of aggregated data, maybe multiply the results by 2?
