IMO, the max number of concurrent transactions that the a database system can handle at once is a very clear application of Moore's Law.
I'm not quite sure that's the case. I think in reality Moore's Law has also helped databases become much larger and more complex, so it's not clear-cut. But in any case, Moore's Law is slowly dying, so I'm not sure that's a good argument for envisioning databases supporting 1M+ concurrent transactions in 10 years. Of course, never say never :-)
Note: Although coroutines were already dropped from PEP 611, I felt that this response was still worthwhile to write. I suspect that the topic of "coroutine object limits" is likely to come up again in the future.
Right. Best regards Antoine.
