Why is kdb+ so fast?

  • Simultaneous operations on multiple data points with our vector approach.
  • Built-in programming and query functionality for in-database analytics.
  • The small footprint of kdb+ (800KB) allows the full scope of q operations to reside in L1/2 CPU cache.
  • Small footprint (800KB) ensures operations reside in L1/2 CPU cache.
  • Memory-mapped files reduce CPU overhead, avoiding data translation from disk to memory.
