Description

Hello,

We are running with the 2.2.50 version of StackExchange.Redis Library. Working with AWS, we found out that INFO REPLICATION commands are storming AWS Elasticache for REDIS and causing REDIS to go down. Any help would be greatly appreciated? We are using Cluster Mode Enabled (multiple Shards) and TLS

Research direction

Start from the reported StackExchange.Redis 2.2.50 setup and the INFO REPLICATION command, using the stated AWS ElastiCache configuration with cluster mode, multiple shards, and TLS. No file or test is identified; done would require isolating why the commands are storming Redis and documenting a verified stability fix or reproduction.
