Redis is used by django-channels to pass messages between the different processes. I wouldn't expect the Redis database to grow over time, since the messages are ephemeral - they're discarded once they've been handled. Does that answer your question?
Thanks for that, I'll close this.
The installation instructions show that Redis is required, but there is no other mention in the docs about it. I can find nothing useful in the code to indicate what it's used for.
I'm trying to get a rough idea of what size the Redis database is likely to grow to over time so that I can plan an installation.
