Potential optimisations
This is a great service and should help reduce Redis misused. I'm really excited about it.
A few potential changes for future iterations:
- Reduce the frequency. Currently the script seems to run hourly. Would it be worth considering reducing this to daily?
- Run the script on the host to reduce network traffic. Currently the script generates a lot of traffic. I'm not sure of the costs associated by if we could run it locally it might be better.
- Choose a different time from
:00. Currently lots of things run on the hour. Having a signature time that is unique for a certain cron may make it easier to detected slowdowns related to the cron in future. It also spreads work out.
