Blockchain Database Technology - Most blockchain databases utilize a Merkle–Patricia trie on top of a key–value store, such as LevelDB or RocksDB [1] - This design introduces extra read lookups, leading to a read amplification problem as the blockchain database expands [1] - SonicDB eliminates the key-value store layer by directly indexing the world state in binary files [1] - This approach avoids read amplification and significantly enhances access time [1]

Performance Improvement - SonicDB 通过将状态存储在二进制文件中而非键值数据库中，从而消除了读取放大 [1] - 在 Sonic 主网的前 1100 万个区块上，测量到约 1300 MGas/s 的速度 [1] - 相比之下，可比的 Geth 设置达到了约 210 MGas/s 的速度，SonicDB 性能提升显著 [1] Technological Innovation - Sonic 团队致力于识别和消除基础约束，而不是围绕它们进行优化 [1]

Technology & Performance - SonicDB is optimized for speed by directly writing state to disk [1] - SonicDB achieves 620% (6.2x) faster performance compared to Geth [2] - SonicDB utilizes direct binary storage [2] - SonicDB achieves zero read amplification [2] Database Architecture - Traditional chains often use key-value stores, which can slow down database performance [1] - Sonic Labs avoids key-value stores in favor of a faster approach [1]
