Wow the mood is aggressive here.
Its like a lot of people really want pgrust to fail.
There maybe a chance this was cheating or it may have been a misunderstanding. But now since there is an open source version, why is there still this strong sense of negativity.
Well, it does look really bad at first glance, even if there's apparently an explanation.
I'm also not going to cheer on database projects that can't be 100% transparent and honest.
Who the hell is going to trust their data to a people can't even be honest on benchmarks. What do you think will happen if (or when) there's a data corruption bug. What evidence do you have to think these same people will behave any better?
They failed themselves, we're just watching it happen.
Do you not believe their explanation for the accusations? To me it seems like if the released version is hitting or beating the allegedly cheated benchmark numbers then it seems unlikely they were dishonest in the first place.
