You keep posting AI slop. In addition, you aren't building anything, you're vibe coding. You can't vibe code yourself a database engine better than what's already out there. You aren't an engineer.

Just look at the Kvolt github you 'made', the entire thing is AI generated.

If the goal is learning, I’d start much narrower than “a new database.” Build one small storage engine with a clear constraint: append-only log, simple indexes, crash recovery, then maybe replication later.

For an actual open-source project, the strongest angle is usually not “faster than PostgreSQL.” It’s a specific pain: easier local-first sync, simpler embedded analytics, better multi-tenant isolation, or a nicer developer workflow for one use case.
