If the original comment is talking about saving money and running in Google cloud, could they be using virtual machines and HDD while both you and the parent talking about good speeds (and not money) are using physical servers and SSD?

I am indeed running PostgreSQL on bare metal with a 20TB NVMe pool, the DB itself is around 18 TB :)

But that's the way to go, isn't it?

I'm just your average Joe using RDS. The whole database itself is 3TB.
