This is correct. My use-case was safe with eventual consistency, so I could've even used `synchronous_commit=off`, but I kept it to 'local' to get a baseline. Was happy with the 60k number I got, so there was no need for &#x2

I hit 60k per second in 2020 on a 2-core, 100GB SSD installation of PG on GCP. And "tuning" PG is way easier than any dedicated queueing system I've seen. Does there exist a dedicated queueing system with an equivalent to EXP

I did sth similar. Designed and built for 10 million objects / hour. Picked up by workers in batches of 1k. Benchmark peaked above 200 million objects / hour with PG in a small VM. Fast forward two years, the curse of success stri

TFA is light on details, but I have a few choice anecdotes about negative consequences of this: ---- I work on a large C++ codebase that takes quite a lot of CPU and RAM to build. To ease development access, we set-up a beefy VM in the clou

Well, three ways: 1. Dump a backup to disk, then restore from dump on new version; 2. Stop the old version, then run `pg_upgrade --link` on the data of the old version which should create a new data directory using hardlinks, then start the

I run all my dev environments under LXD. Even the IDE: full graphical Emacs (or Vim) over X11 forwarding over SSH. Host is Wayland, so security concerns with X are handled. WayPipe also works, but is jankier than X, probably because X, unli

I replaced a similar workflow with SLIME-style `eval-defun` by just running the remote Ruby console within emacs, using inf-ruby. Combined with robe, you get code intelligence for free, but without the heavy and error-prone static indexing
