Setting	Description
connectTimeout	How long to allow for new connections to be established (in milliseconds). In general, this should be at least 5000ms. If your client application tends to have high spikes CPU usage, setting this to 15000ms or 20000ms would be a good idea.
soTimeout	This configures the socket timeout (in milliseconds) for the underlying connection. You can basically think of this as the operation timeout (how long you are willing to wait for a response from Redis). Think about this one in terms of worst case, not best case. Setting this too low can cause you to get timeout errors due to unexpected bursts in load. I typically recommend 1000ms as a good value for most customers.
port	In Azure, 6379 is non-ssl and 6380 is SSL/TLS. Important Note: 6379 is disabled by default - you have to explicitly enable this insecure port if you wish to use it.
Setting	Description
maxTotal	This setting controls the max number of connections that can be created at a given time. Given that Jedis connections cannot be shared across threads, this setting affects the amount of concurrency your application can have when talking to Redis. Note that each connection does have some memory and CPU overhead, so setting this to a very high value may have negative side effects. If not set, the default value is 8, which is probably too low for most applications. When chosing a value, consider how many concurrent calls into Redis you think you will have under load.
maxIdle	This is the max number of connections that can be idle in the pool without being immediately evicted (closed). If not set, the default value is 8. I would recommend that this setting be configured the same as maxTotal to help avoid connection ramp-up costs when your application has many bursts of load in a short period of time. If a connection is idle for a long time, it will still be evicted until the idle connection count hits minIdle (described below).
minIdle	This is the number of "warm" connections (e.g. ready for immediate use) that remain in the pool even when load has reduced. If not set, the default is 0. When choosing a value, consider your steady-state concurrent requests to Redis. For instance, if your application is calling into Redis from 10 threads simultaneously, then you should set this to at least 10 (probably a bit higher to give you some room.
blockWhenExhausted	This controls behavior when a thread asks for a connection, but there aren't any that are free and the pool can't create more (due to maxTotal). If set to true, the calling thread will block for maxWaitMillis before throwing an exception. The default is true and I recommend true for production environments. You could set it to false in testing environments to help you more easily discover what value to use for maxTotal.
maxWaitMillis	How long to wait in milliseconds if calling JedisPool.getResource() will block. The default is -1, which means block indefinitely. I would set this to the same as the socketTimeout configured. Related to blockWhenExhausted.
TestOnBorrow	Controls whether or not the connection is tested before it is returned from the pool. The default is false. Setting to true may increase resilience to connection blips but may also have a performance cost when taking connections from the pool. In my quick testing, I saw a noticable increase in the 50th percentile latencies, but no significant increase in 98th percentile latencies.
minEvictableIdleTimeMillis	This specifies the minimum amount of time an connection may sit idle in the pool before it is eligible for eviction due to idle time. The default value is 60 seconds for `JedisPoolConfig`, and 30 minutes if you construct a configuration with `GenericObjectPoolConfig`. Azure Redis currently has 10 minute idle timeout for connections, so this should be set to less than 10 minutes
