[$] The kernel from a PostgreSQL point of view

Andres Freund has a few claims to fame, but chief among them is his many years of work to improve the performance of the PostgreSQL relational database management system. That work requires working with — or around — many Linux kernel features and behaviors. He put in an appearance at the 2026 edition of Kernel Recipes to talk about his experience working with the kernel project, how the kernel could better support applications like PostgreSQL, and some interesting developments in the PostgreSQL world.
