I wrote redb ( https://github.com/cberner/redb ) using mmap, initially. However, I later removed it and switched to read()/write() with my own user space cache. I'm sure it's not as good as the OS page cac

Yep, we've been using GPUs for quite a while (even before the alpha support in Kube), both the K80s in Azure and some Pascals in our own clusters. With the support in Kube now it's quite seamless.

Ya, I'll add that to our list of feature requests. Would definitely like to put some more features in, to help people with blog posts or other research in the car space. Ah yes, I would seem that green cars are going out of fashion, dunno w

What was the reason for having hundreds of shards on each server? Were you still seeing performance benefits to sharding it that aggresively?

Awesome, lemme know when you guys have sharding available! Would love to not have to worry about running our own index, again.

Yep, totally agree with this. Last month we spent an hour or two going through the schema and removing any fields that didn't need to be stored, and making sure that only fields which we actually do queries on had index=true. I didn't test

Well, if you used our awesome car search engine (carsabi.com), you wouldn't be spending 20hrs =P In all seriousness though, if you spend 20hrs to save $2k, you're making $100/hr, which is better than most programmers make, even.

Ah yes, looks like we need to set some kind of sensible default for the maximum price. Would you prefer to just bookmark searches, or login and be able to "save" them? (have them show up as separate tabs next to Saved Listings, or something

Definitely, we'd like to add more comparison as to how good of a deal you're getting, but just haven't had time yet. The hatchback/sedan/... is on our roadmap too. It's a little tricky, because often sellers don't post it explicitly, and do

Ya, adding color search is definitely on our roadmap. It'll be pretty easy for dealership cars, since they usually list it, and for Craigslist hopefully some blob detection will work.
