--csv

Output in CSV format.

--stat

Print rolling stats about server: mem, clients, ...

--latency

Enter a special mode continuously sampling latency.

--latency-history

Like --latency but tracking latency changes over time. Default time interval is 15 sec. Change it using -i.

--latency-dist

Shows latency as a spectrum, requires xterm 256 colors. Default time interval is 1 sec. Change it using -i.

--lru-test

Simulate a cache workload with an 80-20 distribution.

--slave

Simulate a slave showing commands received from the master.
