How is the performance compared to regular PostgreSQL?
I know it says it is not performance optimized yet, but if this succeeds, will it only bring more "memory safety" or is there a serious performance gain as well?

I also suspect this will die very shortly, which is a real shame, not because it will be beneficial but because of the time and tokens needlessly spent on something that will be thrown out.
I am not considering it at all. I am simply curious if switching to Rust has any significant performance benefits or not.
As is every slop generated project. It’s the Toy Story meme irl.

Maybe it will, but having a performance comparison will be very interesting nontheless.
This seems to be a multi-phased project. First phase (completed) was the re-write in Rust. There doesn't seem to be a performance gain and no significant one should be expected. In a 2nd phase a new architecture is implemented which malisper claims to perform much better.
I wished the two phases would have been tackled in reverse order.

Well, tackling them in reverse order would require the humans behind this to develop an actual understanding of the existing code and architecture before starting the project, instead of just asking claude to do it. So, here we are.
The version in the GitHub repo is ~8x slower than Postgres. I have a new unpublished version that is 50% faster than Postgres on transactional workloads and ~300x faster on analytical workloads.
I don’t think that’s true.
