gollark: Old enterprisey servers boot slowly.
gollark: Maybe give it a bit of time to initialize or something.
gollark: Anyway, I run PostgreSQL for "big data" applications, by which I mean "applications which support postgres and nothing else, or which need lots of concurrent queries or something" - SQLite is not good when there are many concurrent writes, but fine in most other situations.
gollark: It has many powers.
gollark: SQLite can actually query JSON too.
