Re:SQLite small blob storage: 35% Faster Than the Filesystem by AstralStorm on Wednesday June 14, 2017 @02:10AM (#14550928)
Which is why before making such broad statements they should check on the other platforms, which have much less broken file systems. (Check Ext4, ZFS, UFS2, HPFS+ and APFS at least.)

What they did is check an untuned Ext4, UBIFS, HPFS+ and NTFS vs a tuned database in a single thread scenario. Especially misleading in the mmap case where synchronization would just kill the performance dead.

I find that comparison justified: How many people are even aware of the fact that filesystems can be tuned (except for, maybe, noatime and discard for SSDs)?
