< code > mCaptcha< / code > uses < a href = "https://crates.io/crates/sqlx" > < code > sqlx< / code > < / a > database client

< p > Redis is an optional dependency. Currently, the non-Redis configuration
doesn’ t persist CAPTCHA heat. So if there’ s a systems failure, CAPTCHA
heat will be reset and visitor count will start from 0. For small
installations, this should post a problem as heat is short lived and is
reset anyways at cool down period.< / p >
