Rudi, Improving the view structures for the btree's is definitely a place that we should start to look at for performance gains. The new view indexing system should hopefully allow people to more easily play with ideas here.
As to fractal trees I'm not quite certain. Could definitely be an interesting thing to play with but I'm not entirely convinced by that presentation because it appears to hide some rather important information about CPU and RAM usage during their tests. And the fact that Fusion IO doesn't appear to significantly impact Innodb is a bit suspect to me. Still, an interesting idea to look into.
