Thank you for making the comment I wanted to make, but was too afraid of being down-voted for being an elitist UNIX beard. Also funny that they admit the CPU use might not really be a problem... but try to solve it anyway and add a lot of complexity to their system. I have learned to KISS and am I am surprised they are solving this problem and don't have more pressing product development. Doing something like this is pretty standard, but doing it before its needed smells of misused engineering time. Also they didn't even really need to do most of the work they did here, they could have re-used existing out-of-heap Go memory mgmt solutions like: https://github.com/teh-cmc/mmm https://github.com/teh-cmc/mmm . But I get it, building things is fun :) But like the parent said, I'd expect it to be a personal rather than a company project.
