Weird amount of negativity in this thread, of course it's not going to compare to editors with decades of development. Pretty impressive what you've put together! I'm sure it's really cool being able an editor to work ex

Think you're mixing up parallelism and concurrency. Other databases with connections that support pipelining can easily get to high concurrency even with a single core. The key is the cpu can kick off 100 queries to a single connection

This actually doesn't solve the underlying issue that I'm referencing. While this lets you share a pool between multiple processes it does not change the high memory requirements on Postgres to support a highly concurrent workload

I wasn't criticizing Postgres as much as I was a bit confused why I don't hear more people talking about this issue. I think poolers confuse the issue because they solve the problem of allowing multiple processes to share the same

I do not understand why people aren't clamouring against postgres's connection model. I might be missing something but as I understand it, Postgres had chosen to couple the concept of a connection and a unit of concurrency for sim

Although software development tends to come across as deterministic with rules on what to do when, a lot of it is up to developing good judgement. The more time you spend thinking about the business and how what you're building will su

This is great, I can see the potential of something like this and am jealous I'm not the one working on it! Don't take the pushback in the other comments too seriously. There is definitely an audience (myself included) who'd

Trying to establish a set of rules for what counts as a business expense and what doesn't for the infinite number of changing industries is a futile task. It also creates weird situations like Apple harboring cash outside the USA. We s

We've been building this way ever since we moved to Elixir which makes distributing state across your application easy. Memory on application servers is severely underutilized

Examine any other distributed system that implements pipelining. Allows for multiple pending requests on a connection (simply by having IDs on every request) which makes for efficient use of connections.

PGBouncer doesn't do anything to magically prevent connections to postgres from being locked and idle for a pending query. It's just an external connection pooler when your native language driver doesn't have a good one

This isn't a required design to achieve transactional consistency. See for example how this would be done in Erlang - single connection dispatching to isolated Erlang processes. Fundamentally just needs isolation to be done at a differ

Postgres' inability to handle multiple concurrent queries on a single connection makes it a pain when using it for multi-tenant services. With all the SAAS companies out there I'm surprised this issue doesn't get brought up m

OLTP traditionally refers to the type of updates you do during normal use of your application. Frequent, small and incremental updates vs large sweeping reads and aggregations (OLAP) The T does stand for transactional but in this context
