Current situation with garbage collection

Yes, indeed.

And here I was halfway towards a Lambo

It’s rare that a software system can scale more than two orders of magnitude without at least some hurdles, and even more difficult it is to predict the bottlenecks for a system as innovative as Storj. However, when Storj starts approaching 1 EB of data, I’m pretty sure they will earn enough to fund engineering efforts to optimize the process. My experiment shows there’s plenty of opportunities to do so, and they should not be difficult to put into production.
