BigData (Hadoop/NoSQL)

Hi All,

I had this idea since the early 2013 - even before "osv.io" came out.

Looking at the characteristic of DragonFly, it looks more modern for 
really special applications and HAMMER looks an interesting step for 
Desktops as well.

- purpose was for BigData optimisations (Hadoop) and NoSQL
- the overhaul of a typical UNIX design was more interesting with 
DragonFlyBSD
- DragonFlyBSD project just has acquired a 48-core opteron machine to 
stress test their performance gains
- swapcache (similar to bcache on Linux and L2arc on ZFS)
- HAMMER filesystem (and the under-development HAMMER2) with an 
interesting snapshot feature. (to solve BigData storage (archival) problems)

Note: a typical Data scientist does not require such a titan - they only 
need a simple relational DB (MySQL/MSSQL) and a normal Windows Laptop.

Regards,
Muhammad Nuzaihan
