I think his point is that redis will likely always be focused on Linux as a deployment platform: it is going to run better there.

If people are signing up to use it because it's fast, what's the point of deploying it somewhere that slows it way down?

Indeed it is already a non trivial effort to make sure that it will run fine under the major free unix systems out there, like *BSD... so our main target is Linux, but we try to do our best to make it working well on FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Mac OS X as well.
