State Persistence Architecture Comparison
Elesium Sovereign Delta WAL Checkpointer
Async JSON Patch / MsgPack Delta WAL commits in sub-1.5ms off the critical path, enabling microsecond O(1) state pointer rollback with 93% storage compaction.
Commit Overhead: +1.4ms | Rollback: 11ms | Storage Compaction: 93.5%
Synchronous Relational Checkpointing (Postgres JSONB)
Blocking DB commits on every node transition add 25ms to 40ms to critical-path latency, suffering from O(N^2) payload bloat and slow cold state deserialization.
Commit Overhead: +28.5ms | Rollback: 1,450ms | O(N^2) Storage Bloat
Volatile In-Memory Mesh (Uncheckpointed)
Zero persistence overhead during nominal runs, but tool exceptions, API timeouts, or human rejections abort entire DAGs, forcing 100% full reruns from scratch.
Commit Overhead: 0.0ms | Turnaround: 18-45s (Full Re-run) | 100% Token Loss
