Nice stuff. There was a big debate with some community members about RocksDB but I'm glad this issue was solved.

I really appreciate the work you are doing for the whole blockchain ecosystem. It's very important that we have fast and scalable infrastructure before SMTs are released and more users started to roll into Steemit and other interfaces (Busy, Partico, Esteem), as well as develop high quality dapps.

Actually that's what really matters at the end - how many people are using your blockchain and how many use cases can you show. Steem is big and will stay big, even though it may take more time to grow than we expected at the first place. Keep up the good work guys, keep up the good work.
