We got early access to an @nvidia Vera CPU, so we put it through its paces using DuckDB running the full TPC-H workload and compared it against a high-end x86 baseline CPU. Our experiments have two key findings. First, Vera outperforms the x86 baseline by ~1.5× with both the current and the upcoming DuckDB versions. Second, DuckDB v2.0.0-alpha achieves scores approx. 1.25× higher than DuckDB v1.5.5 on both CPUs. Read more in the post – link in the thread.
