Redis takes the whole dataset in memory and
|
||
`writes asynchronously to disk <Persistence.html>`_ in order to be
|
||
very fast, you have the best of both worlds: hyper-speed and
|
||
`persistence <Persistence.html>`_ for your data.
|
||
Establishing a new connection to a Redis Server is *simple* and
|
||
*fast* nothing more that a TCP three way handshake. There is no
|
||
authentication or other handshake involved

||
(`Google Group: Can we use connection pool in Redis? <http://groups.google.com/group/redis-db/browse_thread/thread/1adb93f0b6a1460a>`_)
|
||
You can read more about the way Redis clients communicate with
|
||
servers in the
|
||
`Protocol Specification <ProtocolSpecification.html>`_.
|
||
On most commodity hardware it takes about 45 seconds to restore a 2
|
||
GB database, without fancy RAID. This can give you some kind of
|
||
feeling about the order of magnitude of the time needed to load
|
||
data when you restart the server, so restarting a server is fast
|
||
too.
|
||
Also `Replication <Replication.html>`_ is fast, benchamarks will
|
||
give you the the same order of magnitude a restart does
