> How is it misleading

It's misleading because the comparison would be redis cluster vs dragonfly. There's no speed-up if the Redis user isn't fully saturating a single core. The real question is why is it only 25x faster on a 64-vCPU machine? Why isn't it 64x? Does this mean it's 60% slower when the request volume is below the needs of a single-threaded redis?

> Dragonfly's value proposition

Dragonfly has zero value proposition other than a ticking-time-bomb of pricing fuckery when they're forced to yield a return on that $21M investment.
