> database engines all use blocking io
Only in open source, most advanced database engines have not been designed with blocking I/O in a very long time in closed source. I have not worked on any database engines with blocking I/O in the last decade.
This is an area of easy integer factor performance improvement for open source databases, and one of the primary reasons they are not competitive with the performance of many closed source designs.
- fractalb 7y agoAre there any benchmarks openly available to compare the performance of different open/closed source DB’s?
