Yeah it was back in February in your community Slack, I did receive a fairly thorough response from you and others about it. However then there were no technical critiques of the Go benchmarking code, just how our PostgreSQL comparison would fall short in real OLTP workloads (which is fair).

Yes, thanks!

I don’t think we reviewed your Go benchmarking code at the time—and that there were no technical critiques probably should not have been taken as explicit sign off.

IIRC we were more concerned at the deeper conceptual misunderstanding, that one could “roll your own” TB over PG with safety/performance parity, and that this would somehow be better than just using open source TB, hence the discussion focused on that.
