That would be me, yes ;-)

I haven't looked into the integration with Seastar yet -- but I'd love
to collaborate on this. As for tested on OSv, this is an interesting
question. Geode cluster seems to be doing fine when executed
under KVM, when exactly the same configuration gets deployed
on Amazon (Xen) Geode seems to tickle OSv/EC2 networking in
some curious way that disrupts TPC/IP stack. Again, this is something
I'd love to collaborate with someone to get to the bottom of.

James, what's your interest in Geode deployed on OSv?

Thanks,
Roman.

P.S. To anticipate the next question ;-)  I've done some anecdotal
benchmarking, but still working on a paper for YCSB results for
2016.
