looking through the release info, it states that linux doesn't (currently) have nanite or lumen support. nanite might be tightly coupled to the IO subsystem on windows (a bit rough, but it's.. understandable, almost..), but i&#x27

Valorant’s anti-cheat is considered to be good, but hacks are available. it’s also incredibly invasive - running in the kernel, meaning it must be enabled at boot time - something i don’t think is either necessary or desirable. faceit/

whilst "free" in principle, there is obvious cost/risk in adopting features like those (CTE demat and llvm), if nothing else, in even trying them out. testing the llvm-based optimiser (in postgres 11) showed little benefit, a

still, changes between 9.6 and 12 are _numerous_, both in features and performance: llvm based query compilation, CTE de-materialisation, proper procedures, and that's just off the top of my head. i wish the process for upgrading postg

that's sort of my point though - namespacing is a great feature that allows for more independent & isolated testing and execution, there is no doubt. docker provides none of it. i would argue that relying on docker hiding public vi
