If you are really 20x faster, you are very unlikely to sell it as an open source project, since you already give away your competitive advantage. If you are not that fast, and you want to sell it open source, then you need to make a large group of people understand what you are doing which I did not see easily here.

We keep the core component as private repo, which builds the ToplingZipTable files -- the SST with the searchable compression algo for speed. -- Although even without this component, ToplingDB is still outperforms RocksDB.
