I am pretty excited about D1 and in general a CF fanboy, so congrats to this huge milestione. But, we need more--following is just a wish list:

- Development since start took time (with a good reason), hope we see soon read replication and higher pace

- So, some roadmap _with_ ETAs would be great, e.g., will replication come this or next year?

- I don't care about read performance because I know that sqlite paired with CF's infrastructur will perform but I would love to have more infos on write performance; this is really sqlite's weakest point and I haven't seen any implementation which could compete anywhere with other dbs; sqlite slows down very quickly when doing a couple of small writes/sec

Then, I'd like to see the close competition here on HN, so db-providers with many read-replicas (CEO's and/or devs from Turso and Fly/LiteFS), commenting on D1 and how they compare against and what they plan to compete. This is a too exciting space and time to be laissez-faire.

LiteFS author here. I’d love to compare and contrast D1 with how LiteFS works but there’s not enough technical details at the moment. I’m looking forward to future technical blog posts from Cloudflare or perhaps they could open source their implementation.

There are a lot of ways to approach SQLite replication and one isn’t better than another necessarily. They simply have different trade-offs.
