A while back, Juri and me Niklp decided to migrate the modstorage SQLite’s of our Minetest servers to Postgresql. The map, player and auth databases of our servers are using already Postgresql. Since some other people reported performance/latency issues with the Postgres backend¹, we decided to do some benchmarks. You can find the source code of the benchmark mod on GitHub. And the results were yes… quite bad.
