phpredis cluster setup persistent connection

[exabytes-yllai]

I am trying to minimize redis latency on redis object cache plugin using phpredis client with persistent connection.
May I know if the below setup is correct if I wanna establish a persistent connection to my redis cluster?

define('WP_REDIS_CLIENT', 'phpredis');
define('WP_REDIS_IGBINARY',true);
define( 'WP_REDIS_CLUSTER', [
    'tlsv1.2://influasia-serverless-fxwlfg.serverless.apse1.cache.amazonaws.com:6379?alias=node-01&persistent=1',^M
] );
define( 'WP_REDIS_SSL_CONTEXT', [     
    'verify_peer' => false,
]);      

Below is my redis.ini (/usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-redis.ini) setting.

extension=redis
redis.pconnect.pooling_enabled=1
redis.pconnect.connection_limit=10

I am getting high latency on my redis statistics with this setup.

You might be better off asking in PhpRedis for the ini directives.

Using persistent connections will only reduce the initial connection latency, however the majority of commands still need to do round trips. I'd suggest using Relay if latency matters.

Got it. in that case, can you confirm this is the correct way to establish a persistent connection using redis object cache plugin?
