ok ok yeah yeah high availability and whatever but also have you seen how highly available a single fucking binary running on a single fucking computer can be? Have you seen the performance specs of sqlite?

I'm reminded of that one paper from like 2010 or so when a researcher showed that a single threaded binary could outperform many 100 core clusters because they were so poorly designed to scale *down* at all

Did we learn nothing from that? Anything? Anything at all??
