alt Hacker NewsHow is the performance compared to regular PostgreSQL?
I know it says it is not performance optimized yet, but if this succeeds, will it only bring more "memory safety" or is there a serious performance gain as well?

The project will die in a couple of days or weeks. You're making a mistake if you're seriously consider using this in any capacity.

This seems to be a multi-phased project. First phase (completed) was the re-write in Rust. There doesn't seem to be a performance gain and no significant one should be expected. In a 2nd phase a new architecture is implemented which malisper claims to perform much better.
I wished the two phases would have been tackled in reverse order.

The version in the GitHub repo is ~8x slower than Postgres. I have a new unpublished version that is 50% faster than Postgres on transactional workloads and ~300x faster on analytical workloads.
