InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
Just out of curiosity, I downloaded the latest version of GNU coreutils and compared the line count between a few source files and the resulting disassembled object files (using cloc to exclude blank lines and comments). It looks like the ratio is very approximately 2 assembly instructions per line of C code. Obviously, that will depend a lot on what the code is doing and the coding style.
