Not all use cases are high throughput. That’s not what makes it a toy

"Toy/low throughput" = "Toy or low throughout"

  • Can you define "low throughput"? I think people have significantly different ideas of what that means.

      IDK maybe <1000 messages per minute

      Not saying SKIP LOCKED can't work with that many. But you'll probably want to do something with lower overhead.

      FWIW, Que uses advisory locks [1]

    • Yeah I think people generally reach for “big” tools when this “toy” would work fine for the vast majority of projects.
