yesterday i started some work on the insert path of the database. now that it's just a k/v store and i've reduced the x86-64 support to just over a decade, it's gotten a lot more tractable and at least the memory side of things is verging on paint by numbers at this point. i just have to cobble together all the bits i've already written, make some tweaks and fill in the holes.

buffy the buffer slayer still has many question marks at this point. i have to sit down and come up with a design that doesn't involve readers writing to memory much. reads are cheap, writes are not, so readers should preferably only read (i.e. no refcounting).
