Postgres Over QUIC Cuts Query Latency
14 min read
A production test ran the Postgres wire protocol over QUIC instead of TCP, multiplexing hundreds of virtual database streams across a few UDP associations. The QUIC setup reached 9,718 queries per second at 246ms average latency, while the same workload over TCP collapsed to 7,088ms with over 40,000 backlogged queries. The prototype modified PgCat to accept QUIC connections.
