IMHO the main PostgreSQL design objective is doing a flexible, general
purpose 100% write workload. Which is why Hot Standby and
LISTEN/NOTIFY are so important as mechanisms for offloading read
traffic to other places, so we can scale the total solution beyond 1
node without giving up the power of SQL.

So benchmarking write-heavy workloads and separately benchmarking
read-only workloads is more representative.
