    Is it time to kill the database and replace it with a LLM optimized compiled version that simply implements the required API directly in (Rust) code, without any dynamic overhead? It probably will still be based of off a base design or a base file format.

    Ultimately this system will encompass the whole OS, of course, but the DB might be the best place to start.

        SQLite is sure to provide a good parts toolbox. one may even use it as is ;-
