The conclusion should probably be that redis is super slow, not that the python 3 implementation is particularly fast. Also it is unclear how python dictionaries would scale for large number of keys compared to redis.
- coldtea 8y ago>The conclusion should probably be that redis is super slow, not that the python 3 implementation is particularly fast. That sounds like the definition of confirmation bias. How is that substantiated?
- jnwatson 8y agoThe Python dictionary implementation is among the most optimized on the planet. Given that Python uses dictionaries for almost everything, very close attention is paid to dictionary performance.
- benekastah 8y agoThat doesn't automatically mean that dictionaries are just as fast with hundreds of thousands or millions of keys. I don't know one way or the other, but it's conceivable that performance could degrade somewhat with large numbers of keys.
