  Proud to see my name (https://twitter.com/YingjunWu) mentioned in Andy's blog. I was Andy's visiting PhD at CMU and was the top 1 contributor to Peloton (https://github.com/cmu-db/peloton).

They had to abandon the project because there was no single feature that contributed to the performance issues and fixing the system was harder than starting from scratch. Here's the last commit if you don't believe me.
