1. Comparing to something like GitPod (which lets you run on your own instances as well), where do you think Hocus shines?
2. Given you're leveraging Firecracker for isolation, and Firecracker doesn't support GPUs, I assume that adding GPU-enabled machines isn't on your near-term roadmap?

We're a big Atlassian shop, and switched from Crucible to Bitbucket Server (then Stash). I do not get the sense that Crucible is the future as far as Atlassian is concerned - I believe they see Bitbucket Server as what they are going to focus on.
FWIW, with the latest releases, they've addressed most of the remaining features that were missing from Crucible, and I'm very happy now with the PR/code review flow in Bitbucket Server.
I've been trying to figure this out from the docs, but how does it support Windows? In the sense that for now (until Server 2016 comes out), you don't really have "container support".
Honest non-troll question: when you say high-performance, what's the measurement? I'm honestly curious what the right benchmark is for a DB like this, especially one that's doing a variety of spatial queries.
I'm specifically interested in how the measurement performs with a lot of writes constantly happening.
1. Good to know about GitPod - I haven't looked at it for a while so looks like I was outdated. The rest of what you said is good too.
2. This is mostly for ML development, where GPUs are sadly often required even for dev work.
