Orchestration of the presentation was so fun! :)

[@lewisdaly9099]

Ah you guys are a bunch of nerds... love your work!

[@DavidGauerRatfactor]

Fantastic presentation!

[@DexieTheSheep]

thanks for ziglings, man :)

Amazing video. It’s bizarre to see a thoughtfully designed distributed system. The industry standard of solving scoped problems with 12 categories of overly generalised legacy data service clusters is maddening.

[@TomAtkinson]

Surely you allocate memory each time a new account is created right? And hold all accounts in RAM? Apart from total number of transactions over all time (stored on disk I would think), it would be the number of accounts and current balance that would determine your RAM usage after startup right? That plus a pool of 10,000 structs or whatever in your batch size?

Loving these tiger beetle talks. Really smart people doing some really cool stuff.

[@tenthlegionstudios1343]

Same. Have slowly been going through them all these past few months. They do such a great job explaining complex topics, and finding simple efficient solutions. Brilliant. Considering watching their entire LSM stream next :)

That's one cringe presentation, but it does have some useful information. 1.5x speed is optimal.

I like distributed systems and tolkien

@@LewisCampbellTech 100% loved every minute of it. Technology presentations are better when fun/entertaining.

[@user-ql1tk3sl3s]

That’s one cringe comment, and it doesn’t have any useful information. Not commenting would have been optimal.
