Serialize tables is nice and many memory-based apps can benefit but for most
databases persistence is a must.

I agree with previous statement that persistence is the top priority. RML
has tackled this
with a separate persist library that provides the persistent STL containers.
Also shmem I think provides
persistent stl containers using mmap files (persist library even has
benchmarks comparing to mysql)
