How to find where the memcached on Mac OS is installed?

How to find the location of the installed Memcached server on mac, which is installed using the MacPorts tool?

I want to restart the Memcache server, in verbose mode.

This Memcache server is automatically getting restarted, even though I killed it.

Memcached from MacPorts installs a launchd plist file. If that is loaded, launchd will always restart memcached when it notices it is terminated (this is default launchd behavior).

Use sudo port load memcached/sudo port unload memcached to activate/deactive this launchd plist.

If the plist is unloaded, you can manually start memcached using the binary. You can find the binary using port contents memcached | grep -E /s?bin/.
