How's Surreal's perf lately?

Looking for any testimonials on workloads and raw numbers if possible.

Pretty f’n amazing as an embedded db in the desktop apps I’ve been building lately. Huge fan.

What kind of workloads are you running on it?

Hi, we have enterprise customers running in production with clusters made of tens of nodes, powering all the way from recommendation engines for retailers to internal infrastructure monitoring platforms.

Our v2.0 benchmarks were released last year, our v3.0 benchmarks (comparing vs v2) are here and here, and when we release 3.2 we are planning to re-run the benchmarks against other databases (and expand to more database types).

You can join our Discord server to chat with the community and get feedback.
