I’ve used a fourth instance to host a PMM server to monitor servers A and B and used the data collected by the PMM agents installed on the database servers to compare performance. To be fair, that is also true with PostgreSQL; it hasn’t been tuned either, and it, too, can also perform much better. Why is that?
