Yeah. It sounds like a great choice to consider 
https://github.com/deephacks/lmdbjni. It's still in updating. Would we proceed 
on this?

Anyway, will play around it this week and see if any concerns.

Regards,
Kai

This is a good discussion.

I agree with Kai, having a good and stable backend / database is critical to 
this project’s future.  OTOH Emmanuel’s point that we’re open source 
(volunteers) is an obvious inhibiting factor.

So, do we have SWAG’s for the number of hours required for both approaches, 
i.e. apacheds w/ LMDB or Mavibot?

If we can have an apacheds & lmdb release in a few weeks, where mavibot might 
take many months, it might be worth a shot.  Otherwise we should stay the 
course and not get sidetracked.

(my two cents)
