SkipScan Under Load (timescale.com)

Hi HN!

I wrote this article comparing TimescaleDB's SkipScan feature to vanilla Postgres performance for DISTINCT queries (get me the last row for all IDs) while a 200K rows per second ingest was happening.

I'm going to be writing more of these smaller performance pieces (sometimes Timescale related, sometimes Postgres related) - I'd love to hear some suggestions (especially around PG performance) from the HN community
