I'm not clear why you're worried about that. Is it the pulling, or the processing?

The pulling shouldn't be an issue -- I don't know about PHP, but in pure Python, I can pull an arbitrary 10MB string from Redis in ~85-90ms. With hiredis (C extension), that falls to about 47ms.

I can't speak to processing, since I don't know exactly what transformations you're performing.

It's more the iteration of each pixel and it's neighbor (of which there are 8) making it around 9.6 million iterations.

We will probably head towards redis in the future when precise backups are essential. Undecided what will do this processing though.

We built GPU-accelerated NoSQL datastore. using it, this can be accelerated 100x, given you switch to binary pixel format.

Why would you use a GPU-accelerated storage when latency is the main goal?
