Yup, offline mode is definitely a big area of focus for us. Regarding the tag, I’m not sure what the protocol is for these things, but since it wasn’t used for a clear product/project/topic, we figured it was as good a destination as any, since we’d prefer to let everybody benefit from answers we may give to support questions, via SO.

I’m drafting something to dive deeper into the video now; anything in particular you’d like us to dive into?

I'd love deeper info about "we don’t require deserialization to get objects out of the file", but that might be somewhere in the documentation. I'm assuming you're faster than SQLite, so a demo showing those side by side might be a good selling point too.

Realm is not an ORM, but rather an integral part of your language. One key difference is that it does not have to copy all values in the objects back and fourth as you read them and save them, as most ORM's does. So that gives a huge performance improvement.

There are some benchmarks in our intro blogpost[0]. So I can recommend reading that for a bit more background information. We will have more blog posts coming out soon about the technical details.
