Does anyone can tell me why this feature is not yet ready for production usage？ Anyone can tell me the details, please? I need to explain to my client for the details.

Thanks!

There is no further development expected on this repo, and several features in 2.1 branch will not be carried forward, including this one. See https://github.com/eosnetworkfoundation/mandel for current development.

One of the issues is that rocksdb storage is too slow compared to chainbase.

Although it is slow compared to chainbase, is it stability guaranteed for production usage? As we have completed the relevant development on this feature. We need to know if there is any other issues or risks in potential when we deploy production.

Thanks!

It is marked as "developer preview", so I wouldn't use in production.
