- used_memory_human: Human readable representation of the previous value
- used_memory_rss: Number of bytes that Redis allocated, as seen by the operating system
- used_memory_rss_human: Human readable representation of previous value
- used_memory_peak: Peak memory consumed by Redis (in bytes)
- used_memory_peak_human: Human readable representation of previous value
- used_memory_peak_perc: (used_memory/used_memory_peak)*100%
- used_memory_overhead: All the memory overhead used by Redis internally to maintain ...
