High latency unsuitable for sub-millisecond requirements

7/10 High

MongoDB consistently delivers 3-4ms read latency, which is insufficient for applications requiring sub-millisecond response times (e.g., real-time bidding systems). This creates a critical performance gap for latency-sensitive workloads.
