This should be top comment. I came here to chat about potential downsides introduced by complexity of having multiple threads accessing the internal data structure. Until someone runs this in production where they actually use the performance it delivers over and above vanilla redis, I'll probably hold off. I'd like to know it's stable under very high load with contention. No offense to the creator(s) and I have a ton of gratitude and respect for them pushing the boundaries. But I also know Antirez is a smart dude and Redis has delivered insane performance thus far with few issues.

No offense taken. KeyDB has different goals than Redis so you’ll see us try things Redis might not. I’m willing to make the code more complex if it makes the user’s life easier in some way.

  That KeyDB exists and others like it is great! I likely won’t be working on projects that will outstrip the performance of Redis but if I did I’d be looking at the work of people much, much smarter than I for alternatives and from what I’ve seen KeyDB looks really compelling. It’s definitely a project I’ll be following.
