This is distributed though, which I think makes it quite interesting.

Doesn't make it interesting for me; OLAP queries are very easy to distribute.

Also, kdb+ achieves a "billion rows per second" scan on a similar dataset with just one or two instances (rather than 40), if you know what you are doing.

Color me unimpressed.
