Reduce ORM overhead - make Node Postgres ORM as fast as native client

Reduce ORM overhead - make Node Postgres ORM as fast as native client targets a $4.8B = 800,000 software teams x $6,000 ACV. Rationale: global developer teams running backend services that care about DB latency, paying for performance/observability tooling or optimizers. total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 20% estimated for developer tools and observability adjacent markets.

Key trends driving demand: Containerization and serverless -- smaller runtime images and bursty environments magnify client-side latency overhead.; Connection pooling with pg-bouncer -- pooling changes latency profiles and amplifies per-request client overhead.; Observability proliferation -- tracing tools like pg-hero make it easier to attribute latency to the ORM client, enabling targeted fixes..
