Our anecdata: we store telemetry per thing. After loading a month worth of data - timescaldb as hosted by their cloud ran a difference aggregation in seconds. Clickhouse routinely did it in 20 millis.

Simple avg, etc were better, but always clickhouse was an order of magnitude faster than timescale. We didn't invest a whole bunch into optimization other than trying some indexing strategies in timescaledb.

So for our use case the choice is clear.
