This might be useful in environments in which you do not trust # others with access to the host running redis-server. # # This should stay commented out for backward compatibility and because most # people do not need auth (e.g. they run their own servers). # # Warning: since Redis is pretty fast an outside user can try up to # 150k passwords per second against a good box. This means that you should # use a very strong password otherwise it will be very easy to break. # # requirepass foobared ################################### LIMITS #################################### # Set the max number of connected clients at the same time. By default there # is no limit, and it's up to the number of file descriptors the Redis process # is able to open. The special value '0' means no limits. # Once the limit is reached Redis will close all the new connections sending # an error 'max number of clients reached'. # # maxclients 128 # Don't use more memory than the specified amount of bytes. # When the memory limit is reached Redis will try to remove keys with an # EXPIRE set. It will try to start freeing keys that are going to expire # in little time and preserve keys with a longer time to live. # Redis will also try to remove objects from free lists if possible. # # If all this fails, Redis will start to reply with errors to commands # that will use more memory, like SET, LPUSH, and so on, and will continue # to reply to most read-only commands like GET. # # WARNING: maxmemory can be a good idea mainly if you want to use Redis as a # 'state' server or cache, not as a real DB. When Redis is used as a real # database the memory usage will grow over the weeks, it will be obvious if # it is going to use too much memory in the long run, and you'll have the time # to upgrade. With maxmemory after the limit is reached you'll start to get # errors for write operations, and this may even lead to DB inconsistency. # # maxmemory ############################## APPEND ONLY MODE ############################### # By default Redis asynchronously dumps the dataset on disk. If you can live # with the idea that the latest records will be lost if something like a crash # happens this is the preferred way to run Redis. If instead you care a lot # about your data and don't want to that a single record can get lost you should # enable the append only mode: when this mode is enabled Redis will append # every write operation received in the file appendonly.aof. This file will # be read on startup in order to rebuild the full dataset in memory. # # Note that you can have both the async dumps and the append only file if you # like (you have to comment the "save" statements above to disable the dumps). # Still if append only mode is enabled Redis will load the data from the # log file at startup ignoring the dump.rdb file. # # IMPORTANT: Check the BGREWRITEAOF to check how to rewrite the append # log file in background when it gets too big. appendonly no # The name of the append only file (default: "appendonly.aof") # appendfilename appendonly.aof # The fsync() call tells the Operating System to actually write data on disk # instead to wait for more data in the output buffer. Some OS will really flush # data on disk, some other OS will just try to do it ASAP. # # Redis supports three different modes: # # no: don't fsync, just let the OS flush the data when it wants. Faster. # always: fsync after every write to the append only log . Slow, Safest. # everysec: fsync only if one second passed since the last fsync. Compromise. # # The default is "everysec" that's usually the right compromise between # speed and data safety. It's up to you to understand if you can relax this to # "no" that will will let the operating system flush the output buffer when # it wants, for better performances (but if you can live with the idea of # some data loss consider the default persistence mode that's snapshotting), # or on the contrary, use "always" that's very slow but a bit safer than # everysec. # # If unsure, use "everysec". # appendfsync always appendfsync everysec # appendfsync no ################################ VIRTUAL MEMORY ############################### # Virtual Memory allows Redis to work with datasets bigger than the actual # amount of RAM needed to hold the whole dataset in memory. # In order to do so very used keys are taken in memory while the other keys # are swapped into a swap file, similarly to what operating systems do # with memory pages. # # To enable VM just set 'vm-enabled' to yes, and set the following three # VM parameters accordingly to your needs. vm-enabled no # This is the path of the Redis swap file. As you can guess, swap files # can't be shared by different Redis instances, so make sure to use a swap # file for every redis process you are running. Redis will complain if the # swap file is already in use. # # The best kind of storage for the Redis swap file (that's accessed at random) # is a Solid State Disk (SSD). # # *** WARNING *** if you are using a shared hosting the default of putting # the swap file under /tmp is not secure. Create a dir with access granted # only to Redis user and configure Redis to create the swap file there. vm-swap-file <%= rubber_env.redis_db_dir %>/redis.swap # vm-max-memory configures the VM to use at max the specified amount of # RAM. Everything that deos not fit will be swapped on disk *if* possible, that # is, if there is still enough contiguous space in the swap file. # # With vm-max-memory 0 the system will swap everything it can. Not a good # default, just specify the max amount of RAM you can in bytes, but it's # better to leave some margin. For instance specify an amount of RAM # that's more or less between 60 and 80% of your free RAM. vm-max-memory 0 # Redis swap files is split into pages. An object can be saved using multiple # contiguous pages, but pages can't be shared between different objects. # So if your page is too big, small objects swapped out on disk will waste # a lot of space. If you page is too small, there is less space in the swap # file (assuming you configured the same number of total swap file pages). # # If you use a lot of small objects, use a page size of 64 or 32 bytes. # If you use a lot of big objects, use a bigger page size. # If unsure, use the default :) vm-page-size 32 # Number of total memory pages in the swap file. # Given that the page table (a bitmap of free/used pages) is taken in memory, # every 8 pages on disk will consume 1 byte of RAM. # # The total swap size is vm-page-size * vm-pages # # With the default of 32-bytes memory pages and 134217728 pages Redis will # use a 4 GB swap file, that will use 16 MB of RAM for the page table. # # It's better to use the smallest acceptable value for your application, # but the default is large in order to work in most conditions. vm-pages 134217728 # Max number of VM I/O threads running at the same time. # This threads are used to read/write data from/to swap file, since they # also encode and decode objects from disk to memory or the reverse, a bigger # number of threads can help with big objects even if they can't help with # I/O itself as the physical device may not be able to couple with many # reads/writes operations at the same time. # # The special value of 0 turn off threaded I/O and enables the blocking # Virtual Memory implementation. vm-max-threads 4 ############################### ADVANCED CONFIG ############################### # Glue small output buffers together in order to send small replies in a # single TCP packet. Uses a bit more CPU but most of the times it is a win # in terms of number of queries per second. Use 'yes' if unsure. glueoutputbuf yes # Hashes are encoded in a special way (much more memory efficient) when they # have at max a given numer of elements, and the biggest element does not # exceed a given threshold. You can configure this limits with the following # configuration directives. hash-max-zipmap-entries 64 hash-max-zipmap-value 512 # Active rehashing uses 1 millisecond every 100 milliseconds of CPU time in # order to help rehashing the main Redis hash table (the one mapping top-level # keys to values). The hash table implementation redis uses (see dict.c) # performs a lazy rehashing: the more operation you run into an hash table # that is rhashing, the more rehashing "steps" are performed, so if the # server is idle the rehashing is never complete and some more memory is used # by the hash table. # # The default is to use this millisecond 10 times every second in order to # active rehashing the main dictionaries, freeing memory when possible. # # If unsure: # use "activerehashing no" if you have hard latency requirements and it is # not a good thing in your environment that Redis can reply form time to time # to queries with 2 milliseconds delay. # # use "activerehashing yes" if you don't have such hard requirements but # want to free memory asap when possible. activerehashing yes ################################## INCLUDES ################################### # Include one or more other config files here.
