* Fixed bug #543-2 (the issue was reopened with a completely different report)
that caused Redis to randomly crash on list push performed against lists
with other clients blocked with BLPOP (or variants).
* Fixed bug #543. If you saw Redis instances crashing on List operations
(only happening with a non-default max entry size ziplist setting in
redis.conf) it was almost certainly this problem.
* Fixed a bug with replication where SLAVEOF NO ONE caused a slave to close the
connection with all its slaves.
Redis is an advanced key-value store. It is similar to memcached
but the dataset is not volatile, and values can be strings, exactly
like in memcached, but also lists, sets, and ordered sets. All this
data types can be manipulated with atomic operations to push/pop
elements, add/remove elements, perform server side union, intersection,
difference between sets, and so forth.
In order to be very fast but at the same time persistent the whole
dataset is taken in memory, and from time to time saved on disc
asynchronously (semi persistent mode) or alternatively every change
is written into an append only file (fully persistent mode).
