If you implement this, is there any use for memcached still? I assume PHP also needs to be told that sessions are in redis? Jamie Thingelstad jamie@thingelstad.com mobile: 612-810-3699 find me on AIM Twitter Facebook LinkedIn

To use redis as a cache you can have something like:
// requires phpredis extension for PHP $wgObjectCaches['pecl-redis'] = array( 'class' => 'RedisBagOStuff', 'servers' => array( '127.0.0.1:6379' ), ); $wgMainCacheType = 'pecl-redis';
This would also require that the redis server would have allkeys-lru for its eviction policy in redis.conf.
To use redis for a jobqueue, one can have something like:
// requires phpredis extension for PHP $wgJobTypeConf['default'] = array( 'class' => 'JobQueueRedis', 'redisServer' => '127.0.0.1:6379', 'redisConfig' => array(), 'claimTTL' => 3600 );
This works best if the redis server uses rdb snapshots and/or append-only-file logging in redis.conf so that jobs are lost with power outages or restarts.
