Running a high-scale postgres in production is fraught. We have a really demanding workload and have hit a lot of undocumented performance cliffs. Most of these stem from fundamental design flaws in postgres [0][1].

I'm glad to see projects like this trying to using new tools to improve upon these deeply rooted issues that was just not practical even 12-18 months ago. This is really ambitious and I'm excited to see where this goes!

Great point, I was running as root so I didn't pick this up. Corrected, thank you!
