Maybe, though the waterfall development model didn't help much either.

They are very very careful about data layouts though, so I wouldn't
consider that to be "slurping" in the sense of just gobbling all the
data in the simplest and most convenient way.  In particular, they use
quite intricate bit-packing encodings because while they have
gigabytes/petabytes of main ram, they want to get as much of the most
frequently accessed index data as possible into the very scarce cpu
cache space.

Aside: do you know if that 100k servers in a map/reduce cluster is an
accurate figure?  I'd been wondering about that.  I thought the
individual Google clusters were much smaller, like 10k servers, because
of their modular data center design (at least as of 2011 or so).  Of
course they have lots of such clusters.

That's called horizontal sharding and it's a standard technique.

I'm sure google is way beyond that by now.  As the saying goes, they
know more about you and your preferences than you yourself know ;-).
