The Redis cache backend has a specialized implementation of get_many and
set_many which perform the get/set in one command to the backend. However
the similar aget_many and aset_many methods are not specialized. This
results in the performance of these async batch methods being
significantly slower than they could be. We've seen significant
performance improvements by adding the following methods to a sub-class of
the built-in RedisCache class:

{{{
async def aget_many(self, keys, version=None):
return await sync_to_async(self.get_many)(keys, version=version)

async def aset_many(self, data, timeout=DEFAULT_TIMEOUT,
version=None):
return await sync_to_async(self.set_many)(data, timeout=timeout,
version=version)
}}}

These were the only ones we've overridden, but there might be a few others
which could benefit from an improved implementation in a similar way.
Happy to send a PR for a change similar to above for these missing
specializations if desired.
