title: Local Key/Value Store vs native dictionary/hashmap object
body: <p>Any good reason to use something like Redis instead of a native dictionary collection, if you don't need persistence?</p>
  
  <p>Let's assume you have millions of entries, but they all fit comfortably in memory and you don't need durability. </p>
  
  <p>Am I right in thinking that gets/puts in the native object will almost always be faster than a key/value store?</p>
