Any plans to make it distributed? Generally need reliability and fail-over more than straight line speed of using all the cores of a machine.

Absolutely, I was planning to introduce the Active-Active replication in a few releases but I changed the plan to do it for the v0.2, together with a memory control and an LRU to evict keys if it's necessary to free up memory, with RDB load support and the ability to work as slave in a Redis cluster, so it will be possible to join it to a cluster and having running to be used for other purposes if wanted (e.g. analytics or similar).

In general is pretty stable, I let it run for hours under memtier_benchmark hammering it, although I relocated in March and all my stuff is still packed in a warehouse (it's impossible to find an apartment in Zurich, Switzerland) but I am getting a new 2 x AMD EPYC 7551 with 512GB of ram to have plenty of room for testing and benchmarking with local hardware instead of asking favours :)
