Show HN: SliceUp - building the world's fastest time series database in Rust

We want to share that we are ambitiously building the world's fastest time-series database... and we're using Rust! It's called SliceUp and it's already significantly faster than the current fastest - kdb (http://kx.com). We still have a lot more query optimizations and novel features that we want to add to make it even faster.

There's a small demo/tech intro video of our database on our website (http://www.sliceup.co) that shows some query examples and its speed compared to kdb.

Rust is the key ingredient to achieving our goal of being the fastest time-series database. The killer feature for us is Rust's algebraic data types that can express query syntax trees and pattern matching to analyse queries for optimisations - while still being a systems programming language to build such low-level software.

We would like to thank the Rust community for all the great packages and libraries that we've used.
