Hey George, Alexander from SurrealDB here.

Congratulations on the launch! This is a very exciting space, and it's great to see your take on it.

Running fair benchmarks, not benchmarketing, is a significant effort and we recently put in this effort to make things as fair and transparent as possible across a range of databases.

You can see the results and links to our code in the write-up here: https://surrealdb.com/blog/beginning-our-benchmarking-journe...

We'd be very interested in seeing the benchmarks you'd run and how we compare :)

You can sacrifice many things for faster performance, such as security, consistency levels or referential integrity.

I'm genuinely curious to learn what design decisions you will make as you continue building the database. There are so many options, each with its pros and cons.

If you would like to have a chat where we can exchange ideas, happy to do that :)
