This is not a useful article for many reasons:<p>- Redis has no dependencies either<p>- &quot;weird responses&quot; from Redis? Do you change your tools the minute they don&#x27;t behave the way you expect, without investigation?<p>- The title &quot;Picking the right tool for the job&quot; is the almost opposite of what&#x27;s done here. It reads more like &quot;Stumbling on cool Go software and picking what job it can do for me&quot;<p>- 400 (or 850) requests&#x2F;second are ridiculously low numbers for an in-memory key&#x2F;value store. Redis is capable of doing 100x that on small&#x2F;medium machines.
