They're calling a hashmap behind a RwLock a "database"? Damnit I wish I had the capacity for grifting, I could be rich by now.

If you don't believe me, perhaps you'd believe the TigerBeetle team who also made their database single threaded by design.

Perhaps you'd be interested in reading our technical response: https://spacetimedb.com/blog/benchmarking

  • My comment was unrelated to benchmarking and I don’t see anything in that blogpost addressing my comment.

    Also you’re spamming the same comment up and down this thread. Did this post upset you?

    • Yes, of course it did. This article makes factually wrong claims about the database I've spent 6+ years building.

      Your comment was about whether SpacetimeDB was "just a hashmap behind a RwLock" and the blog post I linked addresses that question. Namely, it does have a RwLock, but that is by design and produces better results than the alternative.
