Please don't bring lazyweb to HN. We can already see the duplicate replies (which are on the edge of karma whoring, for lack of a better term) filling the comment thread.

There is redis documentation for this, which is literally the first result for searching "pipelining redis":

HN has a standard which at minimum is above LMGTFY.

Woah chill out. I don't think it's that big of a deal to ask a question, especially for newbies who find documentation intimidating and tough to get through.

To be fair, if getting through the documentation for a feature is tough, then engaging in the discussion about its performance and the potential impacts of these recent mitigations will be much, much more difficult.

That's fair. Although I usually look to HN to hopefully find someone who provides clarity over situations like this. Performance impacts are really easy to interpret incorrectly.

I can see from your profile that your account is "half troll", and there is not really room for troll accounts on HN, while we do value legitimate "devil's advocate" or contrary positions. This is how we maintain our level of discourse.

In the old days of the internet, asking for anything searchable is the action of last resort, and generally considered quite rude unless truly unfindable or incomprehensible. Taking action on one's own intellectual curiosity is invaluable for education.

Not to play devil's advocate here but there's no harm in labeling oneself as a troll unless his actions meet the criteria. I certainly don't believe he's trolling in this instance nor do his previous comments suggest past behavior of such. Anyways, just wanted to point out that this is a straw man argument.
