Read 500m messages in less than an hour?

• zbentley 5y ago
  It depends. Are your reads also writes (e.g. simulating a job queue with a "claimed" state update or a "select for update ... skip locked")? If not, 500m should be no sweat, even on crappy hardware with minimal tuning. If so, things get a little trickier, and you may have to introduce other tools or a clustering solution to get that throughput with postgres.
