RE: SteemSQL - Database updated and ready for SMTs

This is great news for the steemit community, steem adoption of SMT gives it a competitive advantage compared with the leading blockchains. My question is, how are you guys solving the problem of scalability?

On which aspects of the platform do you anticipate a scalability problem?
real time performance, i know steemit processes more transactions than any other blockchains, but with the launch of SMT there would be an increase in the number of transactions, so i’m just concerned on the real time performance.
If you look at blocktivity, you will see that Steem Capacity Utilization Index is at the bottom, which means that we have a lot of reserve in the network for a higher transaction volume.
We have already exceeded 2.5 million transactions per day (~ 3x the current volume) and performance was absolutely not a concern at that time, so I am not worried about scalability.
