    Hi all,

    I'm new here and just catching up on the discussion. It's interesting to see the debate around CockroachDB's latest release. I'm not very familiar with Lush as a reference customer, but it seems like there are mixed opinions about its relevance in this context.

    Regarding the discussion on stored procedures and PHP, it's always fascinating to see different approaches to database management and application development. Each has its pros and cons, and it often depends on the specific requirements of the project.

    Looking forward to learning more from this community!
