I'm a programmer, but not very good at statistics (as in I passed the class with flying colors, but I can't really comment on new situations).
When it comes to things like benchmarking, I find it easiest to avoid making absolute conclusions like "X is faster than Y", but to merely present the data, all the data, and nothing but the data.
In this case, I'd have wanted to see the response times per request, and perhaps the memory trend for the client. At the very least, I'd like to know how Mongo and Redis were setup, and if either had begun to swap.
