Just a question regarding Redis memory size

[reduktr]

Curious as to why you decided on 4MB max for Redis.

I've noticed this usually maxes out cached entries in Redis around 6-7k. If I were to raise the limit to let's say 20-50MB, do you suggest any other tweaks in your Redis config that would work better with this memory limit?

Thanks again for the wonderful repo!

That was done a long time ago for a small network. I am currently using maxmemory 8mb. Of course you can use maxmemory according to your requirement. I also mentioned in the readme Feel free to change them as preferred.

Few suggestions:

• Use maxmemory as a power of 2 (4, 8, 16 ...). It will be slightly more efficient.
• Do not use too big maxmemory, otherwise it will never fill up and existing entries will not recycle. maxmemory-policy will never kick in to evict least recently used keys. You will have too old stale data, which might throw error if it has been updated by the domain owner.
