What do you do to then query the data? I usually need indexes so queries are not slow. Perhaps I could insert into a staging table then bulk copy the data over to an indexed table, but that seems silly.

How were they doing millions of events per minute with postgres.

I'm struggling with pg write performance ATM and want some tips.

I think its because of btrees. Btrees and the pages work better if only the last page is getting lots of writes. Iuids cause lots of un ordered writes leading to page bloat.

That was fun. I like birds but I'm no twitcher, spent a good 10min going through getting better at recognising the sounds.

It would be fun if you could pick a country the birds are from. Australian birds sound silly.

Good luck, the product looks slick.

I see you have traffic coming from indiepa.ge, so I wonder which indie hacker are you and are you on twitter. I always wont to know who's behind something, particularly if im going to install their tracking tool. ;)

"completely static" has a gotcha though. I was getting segfaults yesterday because libc was removed from my docker image.

I had to add `CGO_ENABLED=0`

It seems like a waste of time to me. Wrapping errors adds context. But you can usually get enough context from stack traces.
