- 7Hacker News·7/11/2026researchPgBouncer fleet scales Postgres pooling to 4x throughput
ClickHouse Managed Postgres describes running multiple PgBouncer processes behind one endpoint using so_reuseport and peering to spread connection pooling across CPU cores. In identical EC2 tests, the multi-process setup reached about 4x the throughput of a single PgBouncer process while preserving query cancellation and connection limits.
- 6Hacker News·7/7/2026open_sourcePgDog adds Postgres pooling that preserves session features
PgDog, a proxy for scaling Postgres, introduces connection pooling designed to reduce the usual trade-offs of poolers like PgBouncer and RDS Proxy. It can detect and replay SET state, and it also supports LISTEN/NOTIFY across clients and multiple PgDog processes while preserving Postgres semantics.

Falcon Perception is a 0.6B-parameter early-fusion Transformer for open-vocabulary grounding and segmentation from natural language prompts. Hugging Face reports 68.0 Macro-F1 on SA-Co, along with a new diagnostic benchmark called PBench, and also introduces Falcon OCR, a 0.3B-parameter OCR model with strong benchmark results and high throughput.
