From what I understand, other cache backends like Redis work as well as Memcached for this use case. Assuming my understanding is correct, the documentation should be updated to reflect this. If I'm incorrect, perhaps add a note about why Redis is not a viable candidate." Cleanup/optimization closed Documentation 1.10 Normal worksforme Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 1 0
