> SQLite is surprisingly performant for single node applications even when comparing to Postgres.

In the context of SQLite being understood to be a quite excellent piece of software - shouldn't we expect it to be?

In the context of a single-node, Postgres is overkill. It should not be expected to be competitive with SQLite.

This is almost like benchmarking an in-memory HashMap to Redis and being surprised that it performs well in ideal conditions.
