default/v0 stellzstack (rust http server wrapped around postgres) maybe about to get wildly better? I love this. maybe we can even improve the rust-based postgres extension structure, though it's not bad now

I'm now working on a new, not yet published version of pgrust that incorporates a lot of techniques. Currently the new version:

- Passes 100% of Postgres regression suite
- Implements a thread per connection model instead of the process per connection model Postgres does
- Is 50% faster than Postgres on transaction workloads
- Is ~300x faster than Postgres on analytical workloads. Right now it's 2x slower than Clickhouse on clickbench and I think it's possible to get faster than Clickhouse
