Based on their numbers it looks slower than TokyoCabinet but still much faster than BerkleyDB. Would need to design a head to head benchmark.

I don't think Redis is a good comparison as that's an in-memory database so better suited for the 10% of hot data you'd need to cache. Whereas disk stores like TokyoCabinet and LevelDB would be great for storing the other 90-100%. If your use case involves a large dataset and you don't have terabytes of RAM lying around, that is.
