I wonder why nobody mentions that MongoDB supports x86 CPU architecture ONLY . It keeps unaligned data in its memory structures, and all operations are explicitly little-endian. So, no chance to get it running on any ARM, MIPS, PowerPC or SPARC
There is a fork on github no os86 don't remember the name but is supposed to compile to arm
From CTO of 10gen First, I tried to find any client of ours with a track record like this and have been unsuccessful. I personally have looked at every single customer case that’s every come in (there are about 1600 of them) and cannot match this story to any of them. I am confused as to the origin here, so answers cannot be complete in some cases. Some comments below, but the most important thing I wanted to say is…

You have too much time on your hands. Hacker News used to be a place where serious and somewhat time poor programmers gather to exchange ideas and learn from one another in good faith . We are certainly not here to listen to some dumbfuck spread misinformation. You should have known better. Consider joining Fox News. But I'm not sure if they'll stoop this low. Kind regards.
Dude, was the Fox News ad hominem necessary? This doesn't look like Reddit...
DISCLAIMER: I submitted this story and it is in fact a hoax that has gone too far, you got trolled, truly frightening how gullible most of you are. DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ ON THE INTERNET!
how gullible most of you are
You seem too convinced of your own greatness to seriously consider the possibility that maybe most people here are actually sensible and don't rush to judgments. To me, this post portrays you as an 18-year old that was the smartest in his highschool, but has yet to realize and accept just how awfully many people out there are smarter and wiser. God help the people around you if you're older than 28.

Let's see. On Pg: postgres=CREATE TABLE alter_benchmark(id bigint); CREATE TABLE postgres=# explain analyze postgres-# insert into alter_benchmark (id) select * from generate_series(1, 200000000); postgres=# create temporary table alter_benchmark(id bigint); CREATE TABLE postgres=# explain analyze insert into alter_benchmark (id) select * from generate_series(1, 200000000); QUERY PLAN --------------------------------…
You could try `time psql < alter-statement.sql`. I know, it'd not really be useful as it measures lots of overhead. But if it's fast on that, it's fast during an active session.

I agree with you but my comments are more about telling what is going on in my opinion, instead of telling what I think should be the right priority list. Even if I agree I still recognize that MySQL had a much bigger effect to the database world compared to PostgreSQL, so the success of a database can sometimes take strange paths. But I think a major difference between MySQL and Redis, MongoDB, Cassandra, and all th…
> MySQL had a much bigger effect to the database world compared to PostgreSQL And if MySQL never existed, what would have happened ? Would we have all used PostgreSQL in the first place and avoided years of painful instability ? I read here all the time that fashion and ease of use are more attractive than reliability. And we introduce plenty of new software in complex architecture just because they are easy to use.…

My intention was to troll as many hipsters as possible and make them a little more aware of how easy to manipulate they are, without even providing the slightest bit of evidence. It cracks me up that there are startups out there right now, making foolish architecture decisions based on the FUD i'm spreading. Start thinking for yourself!
It´s worth asking. Zed?

and now he is openly trying to discredit himself. He is either a troll with a conscious or his cloak of anonymity is wearing thin
Yes, i am a troll, and things have gotten a little out of hand. Just because a story was very successful at fishing for up-votes, it doesn't have to be true, people around here need to be a lot more sceptical. And i think everyone who truly pays attention will know by now that MongoDB is the next MySQL.
Now please go back to digg/reddit/4chan and tout this fine accomplishment where that's accepted.

Interesting you characterise mongodb users as hipsters - why is that? (at the risk of engaging a troll) We use mongodb extensively, but I get the hipster feeling also, mostly because they hold office hours at Look Mum No Hands in Old Street, which is ultra proto-hipster.
