Tech stack & purpose

hiredis-rb is a Ruby extension that wraps hiredis, a C library for Redis protocol parsing and I/O, developed by the Redis project. The library can be used standalone or integrated with redis-rb to speed up parsing of Redis multi bulk replies, with particular performance gains for large response sets. It provides both a connection API for direct Redis communication and a separate protocol reader component, allowing flexibility for use cases where I/O is handled elsewhere, such as with EventMachine.
