My experience with MongoDB hasn't been the most pleasant in a write-heavy environment. Until they fix the write lock properly, MongoDB is pretty much useless for many high throughput applications in my opinion...
The new DB level locking introduced in this release is a joke. There's not much difference between that and the old global write lock unless you split your database in dozens of smaller ones. What a pain. I wish they'd just stop pretending and addressed the issue properly once and for all.
I really want to like and use MongoDB because the way data is represented and how it can be queried is awesome.
