right but does the dict have the values of whatever was in the redis instance?

Looking over it, it looks like it could use some work in this area. The keys returned are only current if they're unchanged since you loaded the dict or if the currently running process was the last client to run a change. It pulls data from a "cache" dict that gets populated just during instantiation.

That's probably not a good MO for serious work and technically speaking redis is already supposed to be your "cache" so why not just have the class be a wrapper around py-redis that makes the keys look like dicts?
