It's great to see this type of evolution in database performance, maybe this will become the standard someday. The only thing missing is that there isn't a comparable project for MySQL.

Not trying to be a snoot here, but what is the point of using MySQL today? I can't think of something that I'm aware it does better than Postgres.

Interoperating with code and data files that were made for/by MySQL.
If you could change the shape of your tables to suit this approach, then surely you could adopt Postgres.
Wondering how much the "moving data to the GPU" overhead won't help to make things significantly faster

The major performance gain is doing SSD-to-GPU direct memory access bypassing the need for data to needlessly transfer over PCI-Express twice.
This seems like a perfect fit for AMD's SSG architecture (1TiB flash storage directly on the GPU board).
