PBF Format - OpenStreetMap Wiki
PBF format ("Protocolbuffer Binary Format") is primarily intended as an alternative to the XML format. It is about half of the size of a gzipped planet and about 30% smaller than a bzipped planet. It is also about 5x faster to write than a gzipped planet and 6x faster to read than a gzipped planet. The format was designed to support future extensibility and flexibility.
Why OpenStreetMap is in Serious Trouble — Emacsen's Blog
I was a contributor for OpenStreetMap for a long time, and I advocated for OpenStreetMap for a long time, but the project has stalled while the proprietary mapping world has continued to improve in data quality. For those of us who care about Free and Open data, this is a problem. In this article, I explore the reasons why I think OSM has stalled, as well as solutions to get the project back on track.

candystore - Rust
A fast (blazingly, of course), persistent, in-process key-value store that relies on a novel sharding algorithm. Since Candy does not rely on log-structured merge (LSM) trees or B-Trees, no journal/WAL is needed and IOs go directly to file.

Files As Metadata Format
File structures with simple contents can be used instead of YAML, TOML or JSON. More effectively!
