Huh, magic, obviously useful only if database size > RAM

That caveat covers a very large number of scenarios that are in need of performance enhancement.

In addition to the amazing news of article itself, not less amazing for me is the fact of "active" discussion here on HN.

The stunning amount of comments (2 comments in addition to mine) is good indicator on HN auditory, on how HN visitors value Linux news beyond Docker containers [no one cares]. Not even comparing to any "Yet Another JS Leftpad" related news.

Definitely valuable observation for me.
