Is Google Drive they right comparison ..

works for me - we sometimes compare it to Notion or Figma as well, the key features that are comparable to all those tools would be: file tree with folders and private vs team queries, multiplayer files (you can see when other people are in your query and what they are doing in realtime), comments, shareable links.

lento actually has a great streaming interface, but:
- It requires you to purely interact against a singular stream object. We have a distributed architecture, and so trying to cancel a running query in a separate process would require us to implement our own call to the DELETE endpoint, and then make sure we propagate the timeout error properly
- It doesn't actually support trino out of the box. Adding support wouldn't be that hard, but given this comment by the maintainer, I don't think he's super interested in extending it, and along with (1) and some other minor things, we decided it wasn't a good fit.

Should we add some of this @colebow ?

We initially used this library, but in addition to the lack of streaming support, there's also some missing functionality (e.g. 50x errors throw an uncaught error) and some idiosyncrasies in the codebase (e.g. callbacks that have an err variable that's never defined), it's ended up not a great fit.

hahaha .. unparalleled speed .. by parallel processing
