this is exactly the reason why salvatore has been working on diskstore for the 2.4 release. redis + VM in production is indeed a bad idea.

The thread this post links to is actually quite interesting as you can pretty much read the design changes that led from VM to the new diskstore implementation. The sensationalist title here doesn't help at all - I don't think people who are making heavy use of Redis in production are 1) using VM and 2) unaware of VMs problems if using it.
