Fetching 1,000,000 Rows in Minutes with PostgreSQL
Most people blame PostgreSQL when large queries are slow. In reality, performance at scale is about strategy.
Now follow me and learn!
1. Index the Filter Column
2.Use Cursor-Based Pagination (Not OFFSET)
3. Stream Results Instead of Loading Everything Into Memory
4. Select Only the Columns You Actually Need
5. Use Native Bulk Export (COPY) for Large Data Transfers
Just a tip on how you should fetch 1 million in minutes and less drama!
PostgreSQL isn’t slow.
Na Your design slow.

Most websites don’t fail because of design, they fail because they don’t convert.
Over the past few months, I’ve been helping businesses turn slow, messy websites into fast, revenue-driven platforms using WordPress, Elementor, and custom integrations.
The PageSpeed result attached is from a recent optimization where we improved core web vitals, cleaned backend processes, and streamlined frontend assets, real performance gains that directly impact SEO and conversions.
If you’re struggling with:
• Low conversions
• Poor page speed
• Complex integrations (payments, courses, EMR, etc.)
• A site that feels “unfinished”
Let’s fix it.
I’m always open to collaborating on meaningful projects and long-term partnerships.

Strong point. Speed improvements often get attention, but conversion usually comes from clarity + UX. In this project, what had the biggest impact: performance optimizations or layout/messaging changes?
