Let's make PostgreSQL multi-threaded
Following discussions at PGCon, Heikki Linnakangas, a prominent contributor to the PostgreSQL project, has expressed enthusiasm about transitioning PostgreSQL from a multi-process architecture to a single-process system utilizing multiple threads. However, it is essential to approach this idea with caution, as it would involve a significant and complex effort if it were to materialize. The response within the community has been varied, with Tom Lane expressing concerns about potential challenges and drawbacks. At the same time, Robert Haas supports the concept but suggests that maintaining a process-based model as an alternative may be necessary for an extended period. The path forward for such a transformation remains uncertain, but the topic has sparked both excitement and reservations within the PostgreSQL community.
