Jay Kreps commented on SAMZA-256:
---------------------------------
Yeah you're right it does mess up the layering. But my experience has been
serialization is a pretty big hit so I wonder for in-memory stuff if you would
consistently beat an in-memory RocksDB if you don't do that.

> The sole current kv store, LevelDbKeyValueStore, works well when the amount
> of data to be stored is prohibitively large to keep it all in memory.
> However, in cases where the state is small enough to comfortably fit in
> whatever memory is available, it would be better to provide an in-memory
> implementation. This can be backed by either a native Java class, or perhaps
> a Guava class, if that is found to scale better (or, of course, the backing
> implementation could be configurable).
