BK will get to in a moment. You make a point about the speed of mk
BK versus the speed of raw python dictionary,
I don't think it could ever get as good as operations on disk-based
data structures being comparable in speed to memory-based data
structures. It's unrealistic to expect that I think,
It will be hard to check your timings without the source. One
question is are you starting with a blank database before the
operations? Metakit will get slower as the database gets larger and
fragmented. Sometimes you need to optimize the database as follows:
