There are too many questions here. What does it not do? What's the overhead of monitoring the main DB and how's it done - triggers? Does it need schema changes? What about race conditions - can you guarantee none? What's the memory overhead you need for the cache? Can you control what gets cached?

I'm not a network guy but that seems just astonishing - what is a 'node' here?

So basically you've solved the general materialised view incremental update problem? That's an unsolved problem in general, surely?

Edit: not dissing but trying to see where the limits are.
