Research direction
Start with TODO.md and the checklist in this issue, comparing the listed CPU, RocksDB RAM, SSD index-storage, and non-Linux platform items with the current implementation. Clarify which limitations remain and document them; done means the current limitations and platform and storage gaps are accurately recorded.
