>SQLite isn't just on the same machine as your application, but actually built into your application process. When you put your data right next to your application, you can see per-query latency drop to 10-20 microseconds. That's micro, with a μ. A 50-100x improvement over an intra-region Postgres query.

We will make up for those latency losses by throwing more microservices in our fat microservices architectures, add more message brokers in the flow. For sure will find a way to bring those milliseconds back. :)
