I'll just point out that in 2000, a midsized database server might
have four cpu cores running at 1GHz each, 512MB of RAM and four
disks capable of a total of 400 operations per second and a
total read bandwidth of perhaps 500MB/s.
We have incredibly cheap resources available now, and running
MariaDB or Postgresql or another "major" database is within
reach of basically any desktop computer of the last five years.
