What does he mean here? Don't wake up people with operational problems? Or does "wake up" refer to a scheduling strategy?
Either way, what are these techniques?
Does rust compile reliably to embedded targets yet? Last time I checked there were a lot of problems with armv5.
P.S. Really looking forward to writing Rust on AVRs.

I see that MVCC is a planned feature. Why would you need MVCC for an embedded database? It seems like unnecessary overhead that conflicts with the performance goals.
In Rust abstractions are free.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Some are (more or less) free, others are not. Rust simply gives you some great tools to make the choices yourself. The biggest win tends to be that you can get away without a GC, but still keep the guarantee that you're not leaking memory by forgetting to collect it.

Rust doesn't guarantee freedom of leaks, as leaking is memory-safe.
Nice with more developments in embedded databases! Would be interesting with a comparison with mentat [1]. Do you plan to support any query langauge such as datalog, like mentat? [1] https://github.com/mozilla/mentat
Yeah, I'm curious about using sled as a more ssd friendly storage engine for mentat. I'm just starting to experiment with datalog implementations, but I think by having harmony between the storage engine, query language, and hardware properties we can make a really compelling stateful systems. If this is something that interests you, I'd love to work with more people on this.
