- codesnik 2y agowell, db latency in some naive unoptimized app with multiple sequential queries directly affects _app_'s throughput
- teaearlgraycold 2y agoDepends. Most apps that are slow have shitty app code with N+1 queries. If you can get past that stage and write good enough app code then eventually you’ll hit database throughout issues.
