RedisMetricredis.memory.mem_clients_normal
Memory used by normal clientsDimensions:None
Summary
Memory in bytes allocated for client connection buffers (input and output buffers) for normal clients, excluding replicas and pub/sub clients. High values indicate clients with large pending responses or slow consumers that can't keep up with Redis output. This is distinct from memory used for cached data and can indicate client-side backpressure issues or the need to tune client buffer limits.

Client Output Buffer Limits Causing Disconnectionswarning
When Redis disconnects slow clients that can't keep up with output buffer, redis.clients.connected drops suddenly. This is often caused by clients with slow network connections or blocking on their end, especially for pub/sub subscribers or replicas.
