So, I'm not sure what you are asking. Edge does not run Redis, it connects to Redis. Does connection properties change for a redis client if it is connected to a sentinel cluster instead of a normal redis server? |

So sorry @LittleHawk03, completely missed your response here.
Redis will only improve the startup time of Edge. Edge will favour the cache in Redis over going directly to the upstream Unleash instance to sync features and auth tokens. So you may see a small improvement between the start and the ready state. The biggest advantage you get from Redis here is that if there's no network connectivity to your Unleash instance, Edge will still serve requests from it's previous cache
Once Edge is up and running, it'll serve all it's requests directly from it's own in process memory, Redis doesn't play a part in that so no performance change at steady state
