The rest of the comments, as of now, are unreasonably unsubstantiated and a little bit hostile. AFAICS it's a large effort combining some pretty damn cool ideas from database internals world - this must have been written by someone experienced. It reminded me of RocksDB immediately, and wanted to see the example of integration, but then I saw redis, memcached, and "financial" database workload/protocol implementations. Good stuff, especially the benchmarks.

The code was obviously written using LLMs and I don't say this because the code looks like it's been LLM-generated but because of the fact that no sane person would have been able to write such complex piece of software in the pre-AI era. To me personally it shows how things dramatically shifted in software, and how domain expertise along with the AI became not 10x but 100x multiplier.

Insane take

Why do you say so?
