EMDB ==== EMDB is a NIF library for the [Memory-Mapped Database](http://highlandsun.com/hyc/mdb/) database, aka. MDB. The main purpose of this package is to provide a **very fast** Riak [backend](http://wiki.basho.com/Storage-Backends.html). EMDB

* [DETS](http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/dets.html) The main purpose of this package is to provide an Erlang API for this excellent BTREE implementation. Secondly to build an alternative Riak/KV [backend](http://wiki.basho.com/Storage-Backends.html) and Riak's AAE feature based on this. Finally it'd be nice to build an ETS-compatible API (ala "lets" for LevelDB) to ease adoption in other places where DETS is just not up to the task.

Performance Performance
----------- -----------
For maximum speed, this library use only binaries for both keys and values. See the [microbench](http://highlandsun.com/hyc/mdb/microbench/) against:

MDB performs better on 64-bit arch. MDB performs mmap's the database, so unless your dataset is < 2^32 bytes you'll
need to run on a 64-bit arch system.
