What Modern NVMe Storage Can Do, And How To Exploit It: High-Performance I/O for High-Performance Storage Engines
Summary: Demonstrates modern NVMe flash arrays can deliver ~10M IOPS per server while existing out-of-memory DB/storage engines utilize only a fraction, pinpointing software I/O bottlenecks. Proposes an I/O-optimized storage engine that closes the gap and sustains >1M TPC‑C TPS with datasets 10× main memory. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
