Hence, BoltDB is a better choice. It performs better for reads/seeks, despite DGraph needing a value copy. Writes are somewhat slower, but that shouldn't be a problem because of the above mentioned reasons. + +**Update**: Just realized that BoltDB only allows a SINGLE writer at any point in time. +This is equivalent to a global mutex lock. That'd essentially kill DGraph's performance. So, +BoltDB is out! -- GitLab
