I'm looking forward to the LTS release so I can feel more comfortable using it in a production app.
A slight aside, but I spotted this (currently broken) integration of RethinkDB and Meteor the other day and wanted to share. It does away with the long poll Meteor is doing on Mongo. (I have no involvement in this project at all.)

- jggonz 13y agoOh, I was just reading an article about this (http://www.hackreactor.com/blog/Building-a-RethinkDB-Module-for-Meteor http://www.hackreactor.com/blog/Building-a-RethinkDB-Module-...) and I'm sad to hear it's currently broken. I really hope the meteor guys add support for something better than Mongo. I've already ran into scaling issues on a meteor app I use to gather analytic information. You really need to implement sharding very early on with MongoDB in order to keep memory use and locking issues under control. To me that means a large investment in hardware and infrastructure just for a personal project.
- geoffschmidt 13y agoMeteor core dev here! We are super excited about Rethink and Slava and I have been talking for a while about an official integration. We scoped multidatabase support out of the upcoming Meteor 1.0 release just to get it out the door faster -- we need to support people using Meteor in production with frozen APIs, and we need to do it yesterday -- but support for Rethink is something I'm very interested in exploring in 2014. As for the polling on Mongo, you'll love what Meteor is shipping this week. Meteor now by default connects to Mongo as a replication slave and slurps up the replication log to drive your realtime queries.
