Very impressive stats. Considering the human hours and budgets invested into database development over the years, such a performance boost would be an unusual and potentially revolutionary upgrade to database technology in general. Since the promise of true decentralisation requires distributed systems that allow every user to also be a 'full node' (or something similar), any moves towards lightening the processing costs of running nodes is very important and brings us closer to true human empowerment through the web.
I am looking forward to 'making SQL server irrelevant', along with 'making government irrelevant' ;)
