I've never benchmarked against postgres, but would be interested about the results. I once tried monetdb, and it was orders of magnitude slower for simple calculations, so I stopped looking at RDMS'es after that. I think they solve a different problem, smaller data, data/relational integrity, data mutations. Dataframes can take shortcuts here. If you want to do a serious benchmark, feel free to contact us.
