--------------------------------------
The attached patch might have stability issues, but should give an idea of the
performance impact of the change. Would like to see some bench markmarks to see
if it actually helps.

>
> The CouchDB update process has an unnecessary btree lookup, where it reads
> the values in bulks, checks for conflicts, writes the docs to disk, updates
> the values appropriately and writes them to the btree out in a second step.
> It's possible to avoid this second step, and instead do all the checking, doc
> writing and value transformation in a single btree lookup, thereby reducing
> the number of btree traversals and disk IO.
