Getting lot of 'del' call on GCP Memorystore. But couldn't identify its source

Question

I am getting a lot of 'del' call on GCP Memorystore approx at a rate of 6k/sec. But I am unable to identify the source that's making these 'del' calls.

I have tried accessing logs of the particular memory-store server but didn't get anything related with calls information.

I need to figure out who is making these 'del' calls on my memorystore.

Any suggestions......

Thanks

You may use monitor command to list every command processed by Redis server. You need to use with grep to filter DEL commands from the whole stream. By default grep is case sensitive, -i is added for to filter both DEL and del.

redis-cli -h your.host.name monitor | grep -i del

it will print in following format. You may use ip address to identify who is deleting.

1588013292.976045 [0 127.0.0.1:44098] "del" "foo"
1588013294.875606 [0 127.0.0.1:44098] "DEL" "foo"
1588013298.285791 [0 127.0.0.1:44098] "dEl" "foo"

Using monitor is not going to be free, please check the benchmark numbers.
