We just switched to DuckDB from Postgres to analyze AWS billing data and wrote up our experience, https://www.vantage.sh/blog/querying-aws-cost-data-duckdb

Arguably Postgres was never the right tool to use for this analysis but nonetheless I was surprised at how much faster DuckDB was.

ha! i'm using duckdb for a similar use-case.. plotting 18-month aggregates take less than 2 seconds.. vendor only provides data for the last 3 months (through the web portal).

(i'm "only" working with 30 million rows though)
