You can find 'equivalents' to CPU data structures for FPGAs and speed up operations on/with them while still saving power.
There's lots of trouble with how buffers are used and memory is accessed. So it's not a trivial task, but IF you can optimize generic data structures and replace the existing ones you basically have 2x the speed or half the energy consumption for any DB.
