"Postgres: Why is an update on another table blocking my select for update?"
goncalo.mendescabrita.com/blog/cross-t...
We upgraded to Postgres 17 last week and I ran numbers for real life perf gains over the ~9 days worth of API telemetry since.
They are looking VERY good, with a 15% reduction in request duration at P50. Even better than my synthetic bench a few months back.
Writeup to come.
I gave a talk at Handmade Seattle last year about why I think software gets complicated (spoiler: it's not laziness). www.youtube.com/watch?v=czzA...
This is something I've thought about for years and observed up close both in commercial and research contexts, so I hope you enjoy.
I think the saying is just to avoid wasting time on things that don't move the needle.
But I agree 100% that if performance really matters, it needs to be designed in from the start, not sprinkled on after the fact.

This is a pattern I see across many startups now. Tech has gotten good enough to ship products at 10x-100x less cost compared to 20 years ago. 1/n

22.11.2024 18:59 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0All I want on this app:
- Maintain timeline scroll position on refresh
- More of the people I follow on X to move here
Other than that it’s good 👏
Is my app broken or does Bluesky not maintain timeline position on refresh? If so that’s a big detractor.
