Had a really fun time reading the 8.0rc1 notes a couple weeks back, and diving into the PRs. The PRs on these performance improvements were excellent: very nicely written up PRs, and a logical sequence of work. Of course now there's a great higher level blog post to the topic too. https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/pull/861 https://valkey.io/blog/unlock-one-million-rps-part2/

There's also a very early RDMA transport, which sounds extremely fun for those so blessed as to be able to try it! https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/pull/477

I'm impressed with the whole team so much, firing on all cylinders. Great communication in code review, great fast review cycles, smart use of the blog to share updates. Kind of wild seeing smart players from big tech companies collaborating so actively together in public.
