The most popular Redis client, `redis-node-client` by fictorial, is very mature and well tested. If you are running an older version of node or value the maturity and stability of `redis-node-client`, I encourage you to use that one instead. `node_redis` is designed with performance in mind. The included `bench.js` runs similar tests to `redis-benchmark`, included with the Redis -distribution, and `bench.js` is faster than `redis-benchmarks` for some patterns and slower for others. `node_redis` is roughly 6X faster at -these benchmarks than `redis-node-client`. +distribution, and `bench.js` is as fast as `redis-benchmark` for some patterns and slower for others. ## Usage
