Of course if I need it to be eye-wateringly fast I wouldn't be using a document store. I'd use good old relational or something like redis. Often though you just need a sensible place to put some unimportant schemaless key-value data without a half dozen extra dynamically created tables or whatever. EAV makes me very sad.
