That's an awfully large reset button you want to press, presumably the
benefits will justify the enormity of effort? What are we talking
here, 10x
Let's ask what we'll lose here.
4 years of work, tons of debugging, loads of instrumentation, for what
gain? Almost nil.

You could switch from Jav

There is a _lot_ of room for performance improvements, both in terms of design
decisions but even more so in terms of implementation specifics on there.
I don’t think it makes sense (any kind of sense) to rewrite to C or any other
language, given the amount of work and(perhaps most importantly)
e with Brandon, in a few words

The question just as easily be asked, why not rewrite it in Erlang ? Probably
lots of advantages to be gained there, the ability to upgrade on the fly,
native message passing, functional programming paradigm ?
But as Brandon says, you would be throwing away so much work, would it be worth
it
