This is amazing. Great work! I actually intended for a long time to use TidesDB in a project (MUMPS successor, integrated programming language and database), but I haven't gotten around to it yet because the prerequisite projects are still ongoing.

The RocksDB advantage with large value is not really relevant from my point of view, since storing large values (blobs) in a database has turned out to be an anti-pattern since the nineties. I wouldn't give it a second thought.
