ClickHouse [1] is a "fast open source (almost)SQL analytics database" you are looking for :)

oh trust me, I found it! We're building Luabase on it.

I made this comment because Timescale compares itself to clickhouse a lot, but all the messaging around "time-series" throws me a bit. I'd prefer to use a product that's basically an analytics focused postgres, but it's unclear from all the focus on time-series if that's what Timescale is doing.
