Redis TODO ---------- WARNING: are you a possible Redis contributor? Before implementing what is listed what is listed in this file please drop a message in the Redis google group or chat with antirez or pietern on irc.freenode.org #redis to check if the work is already in progress and if the feature is still interesting for us, and *how* exactly this can be implemented to have good changes of a merge. Otherwise it is probably wasted work! Thank you DISKSTORE TODO ============== * Check that 00/00 and ff/ff exist at startup, otherwise exit with error. * Implement sync flush option, where data is written synchronously on disk when a command is executed. * Implement MULTI/EXEC as transaction abstract API to diskstore.c, with transaction_start, transaction_end, and a journal to recover. * Stop BGSAVE thread on shutdown and any other condition where the child is killed during normal bgsave. * Fix RANDOMKEY to really do something interesting * Fix DBSIZE to really do something interesting * Add a DEBUG command to check if an entry is or not in memory currently * dscache.c near 236, kobj = createStringObject... we could use static obj. APPEND ONLY FILE ================ * in AOF rewirte use HMSET to rewrite small hashes instead of multiple calls to HSET. OPTIMIZATIONS ============= * Avoid COW due to incrementing the dict iterators counter. * SORT: Don't copy the list into a vector when BY argument is constant. * Write the hash table size of every db in the dump, so that Redis can resize the hash table just one time when loading a big DB. * Read-only mode for slaves. REPORTING ========= * Better INFO output with sections. RANDOM ====== * Clients should be closed as far as the output buffer list is bigger than a given number of elements (configurable in redis.conf) * Should the redis default configuration, and the default redis.conf, just bind 127.0.0.1? KNOWN BUGS ========== * What happens in the following scenario: 1) We are reading an AOF file. 2) SETEX FOO 5 BAR 3) APPEND FOO ZAP What happens if between 1 and 2 for some reason (system under huge load or alike) too many time passes? We should prevent expires while the AOF is loading.
