Turso 0.8.0 is here. And it is a pivotal moment for us: make it right, then make it fast: whereas our previous release brought Concurrent Writes on @tursodatabase out of beta, and given the fact that our parity with SQLite is already good enough for most applications, the time every performance nerd dreams about has arrived: time to make it fast!
With the addition of things like group commit, that amortizes the fsync time, and general improvements to the core data structures, Turso is now up to 7x faster than SQLite with 500x lower tail latency when concurrent writes are used.
In the blog post, we also honor the great @BenjDicken, by showing you how it works with the thing that we all love: balls.
This is such a great moment for us, so expect an action packed week: throughout the week we will release more things to celebrate this special moment. Deep dives into the architecture, some cool Cloud announcements, and more!

1/ SQLite is fast. Until everyone writes at once.
Turso 0.8.0 is out: the performance release. Under concurrent writes, up to 500x lower tail latency and 7x higher write throughput than SQLite. 🧵
Excited to announce opethon.com, a 30-day open-source hackathon built around solving real problems in three areas:
• Health & Care
• Learning & Education
• Accessibility & Inclusion
The idea is simple: find a real problem, build a complete working solution, and ship it open source.
AI and other tools are welcome. Just disclose what you used.
We’re already at $30,000+ in prizes, including 100 subscriptions worth $200 each and 100 subscriptions worth $100 each.
I’m currently bringing sponsors on board, but Opethon is happening either way.
The judging panel so far includes @serg_vecher, @NoemiTitarenco, and me. Both bring years of experience across tech and other fields, and they’re people whose judgment I trust. We also have two additional judging seats reserved for Diamond and Gold sponsors.
Sponsors will also be able to host a live session for all participants, with an expert from their team showing builders how to use their product during the hackathon.
Depending on the sponsorship tier, sponsors can also get dedicated posts on my account, placement on the website and throughout the event, and representation on the judging panel.
I’m expecting 500–1,000+ participants once sponsors are finalized and the official dates are announced.
If you handle sponsorships and want to see the available packages, my DMs are open.

"So, Spongebob ok, Spongebob lives in a pineapple under the sea. Ok? You've heard of apples, well this is a PINEapple.
A pineapple, ok?
So how did he acquire this? It's because Spongebob *underlines Spongebob four times* is a freemason."
