Write Speed at Scale
Sustained ingestion, 10K-row batches, 32 worker threads
Source: TSBS v0.1.0 · 100M rows · AWS r6i.4xlarge · Feb 2026
Ingest 10.5× more data than TimescaleDB. Same hardware.
Bring your own AWS credentials. Benchmark completes in under 10 minutes.
Latency at Cardinality
Single-groupby query · drag to explore scale
OOM = Out of Memory at this cardinality scale · TSBS groupby benchmark
Storage Cost at Retention
1B series · 1 metric per second · real-world compression
Storage pricing: S3-compatible object store · Ingest columnar compression
Save up to 87% on storage vs TimescaleDB at 1-year retention.
Columnar compression + tiered object storage. No vendor lock-in.
