What's new in Redis 2.4.14
=========================

UPGRADE URGENCY: high, many non trivial bugs fixed in this release.

* [BUGFIX] Fixed issue #518 (Redis 99% CPU when master down).
* [BUGFIX] Fixed issue #516 (ZINTERSTORE mixing sets and zsets).
* [BUGFIX] Fixed a bug in install_server.sh when using chkconfig
* [BUGFIX] Fixes to --test-memory implementation.
* [BUGFIX] Allow PREFIX to be overridden in Makefile.
* [BUGFIX] The test is now more reliable on slow computers.
* redis-cli --pipe mode, see http://redis.io/topics/mass-insert
* Much better expired keys collection algorithm that makes the server much
  more responsive when a lot of keys are expiring at the same time.

Works on x86/amd64. The only thing we should look out for is jemalloc 3.0 (see bug  416243), since it won't build with this version. It's a relatively easy patch, but upstream seems to be pretty picky regarding what to play game with - so I would suggest sticking to upstream decision. So, my suggestion would be adding <dev-libs/jemalloc-3.0 as dep.
