How you would suggest to demonstrate visually that there are no trade-offs?

The tradeoff the way I see it - one needs to implement 200 Redis commands from scratch. Besides, I think DF has a marginally higher 50th percentile latency. Say, if Redis has 0.3ms for 50th percentile, DF can have 0.4ms because it uses message passing for inter-thread communication. 99th percentiles are better in DF for the same throughput because DF uses more cpu power which reduces variance under load.

Re-durability - what durability is offerred by Redis? AOF ? We will provide similar durability guarantees with better performance than AOF. We already provide snapshotting that can be 30-50 faster than of Redis.
