I've had exactly the same situation, ~2M MAU service with REDIS as the only persistence system, all data being JSON serialized Pydantic models. The storage overhead was just terrible and cost real money.
This would have been a super nice to have back then.
I wonder though how much sense it would make to get something like this mainlined into upstream Pydantic? as having this downstream would give many continuity and dependency lock concerns. And having it as part of the main library would significantly drive adoption rate.
