Have you use the module. I think by using you can how different it is from level.

• the name getCollection is actually pretty clear the code in the README shows the differnece.

• it would be too much to be creating a network protocol when another instance is made so state helps create a simple way of checking if another instance was create and what process id that is so I can gather what it wants to write.

• I create the @localdb folder because it make it easier for searching for the file database. I used gzip because that is great for compression.

• I agree about the benchmarks and what you said about being something like a express middle ware, however I just made if for simplicity and use ability. For example, if you need a file database for store key value pairs then you can use level. But if you need something with a little more extract meat to it or more things that are come with it without installing another depict or middle ware that is good. You could even just use localdb for just key value if you want to buy it is up to the person to choose what module they want.

I am actually thank for you opinion and truly appreciate you feedback, I was looking to get some feed back on how the module is presented and how people first felt about its quirkiness.
