Faster: A Concurrent Key-Value Store with In-Place Updates
Summary: Faster offers a concurrent key-value store for point reads, blind updates, and RMWs. Cache-optimized hash index and a memory-storage hybrid log enable fast in-place hot-set updates, yielding up to 160M ops/sec on a single machine. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
