Fun fact: the supposed extreme hardiness of cockroaches is something of a myth, and in particular they are not fond of cold (hence their affinity for human domiciles!)

They should rename to TardigradeDB.

Their nuclear hardiness however has been experimentally validated [1], though flour beetles survived even better than cockroaches.

Either way, both using CockroachDB and participating in this thread put cockroaches on my mind a lot more than I'd really prefer. +1 for TardigradeDB.
