I went straight to the code and didn’t read past the github link - but read through it now. That process described isn’t in the code..

One other thing I noticed is that this uses aiopg for the async db queries instead of asyncpg, which is more widely adopted and IMO much better.

I was hoping to re-run these benchmarks myself with asyncpg.

Looks like actually running the benchmarks would take a bunch of manual work. In fact I don’t see instructions for running these benchmarks to replicate your results.
