  1. sqlx

    🧰 The Rust SQL Toolkit. An async, pure Rust SQL crate featuring compile-time checked queries without a DSL. Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite. (by launchbadge)

    Currently my favourite DB library is sqlx. Simplicity of raw queries, but safety of an orm. https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx

  3. HikariCP

    光 HikariCP・A solid, high-performance, JDBC connection pool at last.

    Whatever you choose, presuming your app is database heavy, I highly recommend spending time on DB schema design to make all queries as short as possible, avoid relying on transactions, and keep your connection pool tiny. For reference: https://github.com/brettwooldridge/HikariCP/wiki/About-Pool-Sizing

  4. metrics

    Diesel maintains a set of benchmarks for several database libraries
