Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Command-line examples are consistently presented in 'dos' code blocks, which are typically associated with Windows CMD or PowerShell, even though the redis-benchmark tool is cross-platform and most commonly used from Linux shells. There are no explicit Linux shell examples for redis-benchmark, and the code block syntax may confuse Linux users. The documentation refers to 'client VMs' generically, but does not provide Linux-specific installation or usage guidance, nor does it mention Linux tools or patterns. However, the memtier-benchmark section does use 'bash' code blocks, which is more Linux-friendly.
Recommendations:
- Provide redis-benchmark command examples in both Windows (CMD/PowerShell) and Linux (bash/sh) syntax, using appropriate code block annotations.
- Include explicit instructions or links for installing redis-benchmark on Linux distributions, not just a generic link to Redis documentation.
- Clarify that redis-benchmark is available and commonly used on Linux, and provide parity in troubleshooting or usage notes for both platforms.
- Where 'dos' code blocks are used, add a parallel 'bash' tab or section for Linux users.
- Mention Linux as a first-class platform for running Redis benchmarks, and avoid defaulting to Windows-centric terminology or code block syntax.
