It's an absolutely delicious cheese, but why write this nutritional nonsense about "perfect food"?

That paper is pretty good but it's comparing bw-tree with much simpler in memory data structures. I think bw-tress might work specially well for fast-disk storage.

I understand the benefits of a single numeric type, but a type that doesn't support full 64 bits is just painful. It makes documentation smaller and benchmarks look good but often becomes a problem in real usages.

Interesting but I'd like way more details before preordering. The extended battery is specially appealing but it needs way more explanation.

I did in my previous job. It was a good experience except around the time we started seeing corrupt LDTs (Large Data Type). I think a proper solution was never found and they eventually deprecated the feature. I'd recommend it IF you r

I wonder if Redis throughput is even a problem in practice. People usually add nodes to get more capacity (memory).

We should all be, no mater what's your preference, that means lower price (and better motivation for further development) ultimately.

Rust is a much more community driven project, people contribute what they fell like working on mostly.

Amazing work from the contributors, kudos!

Why hack a blood service system at first place? Oh my. Not that people should hack anything, but this is extra nasty.

I find the binary-tree benchmark specially disturbing, it looks like the .NET Core GC/escape-analysis has some catching up to do.

This exit was fueled by misinformation and immigration crisis, I have no idea how Britain's allowed themselves in this hole.

Mad respect for these guys/gals, they managed to squeeze two game changing features in a single release: VPack and Clustering 2.0.

TEXT in mysql doesn't always mean an extra lookup, although at 2kb it will.

It looked to me that the freeze map allowed vacuum to skip pages not touched since last run, so avoiding a lot of work between runs.

Upcoming 9.6 has a great feature to speed up vacuum (thus keeping bloat controlled ).

I think everyone could benefit from extracting that raft implementation to a crate. I'll see if I can get started on that.

It's transactional and mvcc, you can't say the same for most KVS around.

This is fairly interesting. Postgres has a lot of momentum going on. I guess there's not stopping someone from building a better neo4j on top of it.
