Write (initial lookup) speed must be atrocious, but I do wonder about the read speed.

I bet there are algorithms which can compute arbitrary digits of Pi in Log time or less, and you could parallelize that to make data retrieval very fast.

I look forward to the day where someone encodes Rick Astley's famous hit, using 10 indices or less
