Thanks! The Pogocache sharded hashmap design is optimized for extremely low contention and good memory locality. It super rare for any two threads to ever wait on the same key. That's the biggest part and it's all in the src/pogocache.c file. But the network layer is finely tuned too.
Mostly I perfed and profiled ad nauseam, monitoring cpu cycles along the way. I found that keeping a focus on latency and cycles was primo, and the rest fell into place.

Congrats! Would you mind sharing what part of the design makes this faster than the competitors?
