Billion File Filesystem
I built https://github.com/anacrolix/squirrel for just this purpose. However you might find that batch inserting empty files might only be 10x faster or so than creating empty files directly on the filesystem if we are to believe the 10k/s the OP achieved.

Embedded write-heavy on-disk cache, write-amplification
I'm looking for an embedded database/KV-store that supports a write-heavy workload of large blocks of bytes and some kind of eviction policy. I'm currently using sqlite3 with a bunch of triggers and the blob API, but it's not really suitable for write-heavy workloads. I've currently exposed the interface somewhat in https://github.com/anacrolix/squirrel, the primary use case is from https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent. My recent research suggests an LSM-based KV-store like rocksdb or leveldb, but those don't have great interfaces in Go, and don't seem to support an eviction policy as far as I can tell (which is surprising given they would be very well suited to it). There are some alternatives like buntdb, but those all look designed for smaller/string values.

Embedded write-heavy on-disk cache, write-amplification
I wrote something similar to diskv with caching. I stopped using it due to OS file overhead: https://github.com/anacrolix/missinggo/tree/master/filecache
What are some alternatives?
When comparing squirrel and missinggo you can also consider the following projects:
badger - Fast key-value DB in Go.
diskv - A disk-backed key-value store.
goleveldb - LevelDB key/value database in Go.
