RethinkDB: do you plan on releasing any official benchmarks or projections, especially with regards to how much better at realtime RethinkDB is or could be compared to other realtime database systems built on top of non-realtime databases?

Would you trust those benchmarks if they did? Much better that a third party creates them

That's why I mentioned projections too. I'd just love to hear a RethinkDB person tell us how they see themselves in relation to it's alternatives. I don't particularly care about their current performance because it's a young project. I don't even know if they see real-time performance as their core value proposition.

Tho of course, a third party analysis of RethinkDB's architecture would be amaizing (-; Benchmarks not so much.
