lmdb has some special cases where you can store capnproto/flat-buffers objects and read without copying/deserializing!

    LMDB can hand you back a pointer to your object in the memory map, and we can easily use that pointer with Cap'n Proto without any calls to malloc(). source: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12394385 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12394385
