Scaling-Up In-Memory Datalog Processing: Observations and Techniques
Summary: Compares state-of-the-art Datalog engines on graph analytics and program analysis; cross-domain performance varies. RecStep, a relational Datalog engine; shows 4-6x speedups vs peers and argues a relational core can scale high-performance Datalog. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
