SGW Redis client side cache

[philiptrovato]

Trying to implement redis “client side” caching for index and chunks cache.

Have a setup like below (Cortex 1.16.0) and it runs, and SGWs talk to redis, but I don’t see any evidence that the “client side” caching is working. (AWS redis 7.0.7)

Don’t know, or I am not aware of any specific “Client-side” metrics or logs to look at to validate. But I validated like below.

Looked at Network I/O bytes in/out from the SGWs and from the Redis nodes. And see no difference in I/O with the “redis.cache-size” flags set or removed. Would expect to see a drop in network I/O after the “redis.cache-size” flags are set.

Additionally see no difference in memory utilization from the SGWs with the “redis.cache-size” flags set or removed. Would expect to see an memory increase once the flags are set, because of the client side cache.

Also a little unclear with what the flag "max_chunk_pool_bytes" does in relation to what I am trying to achieve (haven’t played with it yet – running default of 2GB). Is this an inmemory chunks cache, or just working space that gets quickly cleared? If it’s a cache, how is a “Client-side” chunks redis cache different?

Hi @philiptrovato, this seems indeed a bug. I will submit a fix.
