Research direction
Start by inspecting Devvit's Redis client API and the existing zAdd and zRank command paths. Compare the requested pipeline and exec shape with the current client behavior. Done means commands can be queued in order, sent without a round trip per command, and return results such as the zRank value from exec.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
It would be great to have a pipeline API on Devvit's redis client. Right now, to guarantee command ordering you have to await each call individually, which adds a round trip per command. With pipelining, commands could be batched and sent in a single TCP write without transaction overhead. Many Redis clients (E.g. ioredis) expose it through .pipeline()
// Not guaranteed Redis receives first command first.
redis.zAdd(...)
redis.zRank(...)
// Awaiting adds a round trip
await redis.zAdd(...)
redis.zRank(...)
// No round trip, fast and guaranteed order
const pipeline = redis.pipeline()
pipeline.redis.zAdd(...)
pipeline.redis.zRank(...)
const [ _, rankResult ] = await pipeline.exec()
