You are exactly right, however Vertica already handles the data locality, columnar data storage and data compression for us. Vertica is so good at its job that we are CPU bound on most queries and these types of strategies around reducing l

There is always a balance here between CPU and IO. For a long time databases and big data platforms were pretty terrible with IO. However, as the computer engineering community has had time to work with these problems we have gotten conside

Go to 10gens site. Watch some of the videos and see the huge volume of data (in TPS or in TBs) that people are working with. Go on the google group and see what problems people have. Don't take an anonymous post on pastebin as the gospel.

We easily support 10s of millions of writes and reads against Mongo per hour on a very small (single digit) number of shards in the cloud (i.e. crappy disk I/O). While that is around an order of magnitude less than 30k a second I would be s
