  "In Python, most of the bottleneck comes from having to fetch and deserialize Redis data."

This isn't a fair comparison. Of freaking course postgres would be faster if it's not reaching out to another service.

As a contributor, I think it's interesting when comments focus on the language (Python vs Rust) vs the architecture (local vs remote). Inference is embarrassingly parallelizable, with Python Flask or Postgres replicas. I think the interesting thing is that data retrieval costs tend to dominate other costs, and yet are often ignored.

ML algorithms get a lot focus and hype. Data retrieval, not as much.

For anyone who skips the intro and just goes to the results, this is what they see: https://imgur.com/tEK73e8

A suggestion: clean up the blog post's charts and headers to make it much, much more clear that what's being compared isn't python vs postgresml.
