O(1) What! What might bring it down to say 10's of ms? Looks like its some kind of optimizable wall that its 500 for everything.

Like with 10ms then online replication/backup — analogus to litestream for sqlite — but for in memory processes becomes feasible, no?

We're actually median under 500ms — ~320ms median — I just didn't want to piss of hacker news with over estimatation.

We have another set of optimizations that we believe can take us to ~200ms in the next few months but beyond that we're pretty much completely stuck.

Realistically other sandboxes will be able to get there before us because we've chosen to support so much of Linux/if you don't run an operating system or don't support custom snapshots that is much easier.
