Redis, but Where's the Speed Boost?

Geninja

Hey everyone!

I recently decided to give Redis a shot on my website, hoping for some notable performance improvements. Redis, as many of you know, is often praised for its ability to speed up websites by caching data in memory, reducing the number of times an application needs to hit the database for frequently requested data. However, my experience hasn't quite lived up to the hype, and I'm a bit puzzled.

I'm using NodeJS for my website

I'd really appreciate if anyone could share their insights or experiences, especially if you've faced and overcome similar issues. Any recommendations on configuration tweaks or resources for best practices with Redis would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, looking forward to your suggestions!

Geninja Having Redis enabled in a Shared Hosting environment makes no effect, unless you use some plugins or manual Redis config.

I would suggest disabling Redis if you are not using it, as it takes up some space out of your user's account RAM.

Hope to helps 😉
