<pre> And now with less snark :).

K/Q/kdb+ deploys a single executable and some additional k code (Q is written in k) in < 600KB uncompressed. Admin is very simple. Multicore use is trivial Hot code updates/upgrades (interpreter uses new definition on next execution) Code works the same (in most instances) for: * a single file/database * multiple files/tables * column files (for each table) * files on multiple machines (like MapReduce/Hadoop)

with no changes. </pre>
