It would probably be possible to get constant-time inserts into an
indexless table, once checkpoints are spread out over the whole
checpoint interval, as described by the NTT staff at the conference, but
this is probably the only RT compatible scenario you can expect from an
RDBMS.
Another way to get RT is just use long required completion times and
light enough load on db that you always meet your time limit.
Remember, RT does not neccesarily mean Fast it just needs to be
Predictable!
