Redis

Compression

Cache compression can help tame the memory usage of specialised installation configurations and Community Apps that heavily utilize Redis, in exchange for increased CPU utilization.

Various compression algorithms are supported, with various strengths. Our testing has shown that lzma works best with our use cases. You can read more at Django-Redis Compression Support

Add the following lines to local.py

import lzma

CACHES = {
    "default": {
        # ...
        "OPTIONS": {
            "COMPRESSOR": "django_redis.compressors.lzma.LzmaCompressor",
        }
    }
}
