I am giving a keynote at an IEEE database conference in Helsinki next
week (http://icde2016.fi/).  (Yes, I am not attending PGCon Ottawa
because I accepted the Helsinki conference invitation before the PGCon
Ottawa date was changed from June to May).

As part of the keynote, I would like to mention areas where academia can
help us.  The topics I can think of are:

        Query optimization
        Optimizer statistics
        Indexing structures
        Reducing function call overhead
        CPU locality
        Sorting
        Parallelism
        Sharding

Any others?

optimization of performance under very heavy loads
    ranging from almost all reads to almost all writes/updates, & other usage 
profiles
    single box, and multiple boxen

large numbers of CPU's
most efficient use of SSD's
best use of insanely large amounts of RAM

optimization of handling arrays & JSON structures


Cheers,
Gavin
