I don't know anything about this database, but this link did break the browser <back> button. Perhaps you can look into fixing that in a future release.

Thanks for the feedback. A PR was created to fix this :) : https://github.com/questdb/questdb/pull/434

Interesting. This little bug comes up a lot on HN and is usually just that -- a bug. In this case, it seems that the "breaking" of the back button here was intentional based on the line comment[0]. What was the initial reasoning for that?

the reason was grid scroll using touchpad on OSX, when you swipe the grid from left to right there is 50% chance of losing web console due to back button being triggered by the same motion.

Ah, surprisingly good reason (:

That's especially for people like you that love to find an easter egg.

Thanks for the feedback, we'll look into it!

I tried these two:

    select * from trips; /* completed quickly */
    select * from trips where tip_amount = 0.56; /* stalled */

Hope I didn't break anything ;-)

All good so far! Thank you for the feedback. Filter's are single threaded and not very fast. We will take them to the next level shortly
