Async-fork: Mitigating Query Latency Spikes Incurred by the Fork-based Snapshot Mechanism from the OS Level
Summary: Async-fork offloads fork-based snapshots from the query path by asynchronous OS-level forking, preserving IMKVS persistence. Linux kernel implementation, deployed on Redis in public clouds, yields substantially lower tail latency during snapshots. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
