"Real data" test
Point queries only, best of three runs. Gc ratio is the ratio of time spent doing garbage collection to time spent adding writes or doing garbage collection. Lower is better.

(The hash table implementation doesn't work on range queries, and its purpose is to provide an idea of how fast point queries can be)
