I'm working on comparisons between redis and SQLite for object caching. So far things look favorable.

I did this project for WordPress, because object caching helps performance (and therefore carbon footprint) a lot and cheezy hosting services don't offer redis. But most of them have SQLite.

Oddly enough, SQLite is really slow on the one BSD hosting service I've tried.
