It was a nice read. Thanks for sharing the article on HN. However, I feel the fellowing claim in the article is not backed by any detailed facts/analysis.

What are specifically challenging the vm assumptions?

Maybe that expensive ram in low quantities and rotational storage on a 32-bit system are no longer relevant as design constraints?
