I really wish SQS had reliably lower latency, like Redis, and also supported priority levels. (Also like redis, now, with sorted sets and the https://redis.io/commands/bzpopmax command.)

Has anyone measured the performance of Redis on large sorted sets, say millions of items? Hoping that it's still in single digit milliseconds at that size... And can sustain say 1000QPS...

We use Redis as a job queue and its great; the only limitation is being sometimes concerned about job queue size due to memory limits of the Redis server itself.

Good luck with durability (of which Redis has no decent guarantees) and availability (of which depend entirely on how good you are at configuring and maintaining Redis servers and worse, the way you access them as a client).
