Issue in ConnectAsync().Result

[balavigs]

Whenever there is a heavy load in the app, where we have a lot of call to Redis, the application in which we use "RedisBoost.ConnectAsync().Result" works quite well for some time. After that, the thread that makes a call to "RedisBoost.ConnectAsync().Result" is blocked by this line of code and it is never released. Over a period of time, all calls to this line of code is blocked and the application gets hanged. Can anyone, please let me know what might be causing this or if anything need to be fixed.

Maybe you should not use .Result on a Task.
I think this will cause your deadlocks.
