Write-once will perform better than CRDTs. You pay for the auto-merging-magic of CRDTs. If you don’t mutate the data you can’t get siblings, and don’t need CRDTs. I guess the docs need to be clearer about when to pick CRDTs. _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
