Performance

Redis

• Use a dedicated Redis instance; avoid shared noisy neighbors.
• Increase max_connections for high concurrency.
• Prefer cluster or read replicas for scale.

TTL & jitter

• Tune TTL per table: hot data short TTL; cold data longer.
• Keep jitter (default 10%) to avoid synchronized expirations.

Keys

• Keep keys compact but descriptive.
• Avoid storing huge values; consider pagination or partial caching.

Serialization

• JSON is portable; PICKLE/MSGPACK can be faster for complex types.
• Benchmark with realistic payloads.

Async usage

• Reuse a single YokedCache instance; avoid reconnecting per request.
• Use pipeline where appropriate (handled internally for set/tag ops).
