The top-performing Postgres instance among all benchmarks is v. 11.0.1008: https://www.passmark.com/baselines/V11/advanced-database-ben...

And I'm seeing versions tested up through 16.3 which was released in May. In fact even 9.2.1 is less than three years old.

   * In that link, V11 is not the version of Postgres, it's the version of the test. Scroll down to DB Version.
   * Lots of versions are tested, but 9.2.1 is the only version I see on the same hardware that the top MariaDB versions are tested against. The others are on much weaker hardware.
   * Postgres 9.2.1 is 12 years old.

This site is not a good like-for-like comparison.
