What?? We run replicated Patroni on local NVMEs and it's incredibly fast.

If you have a K8S cluster running on bare-metal with directly attached disks, sure, it'll work great. I'm just pointing out that K8S by itself will not give you any performance boost if the underlying K8S nodes are the same, slow VMs with terrible IO performance.
Sure, of course. But that's a far cry from saying "on K8S (which is itself going to run on underpowered VMs with networked storage)"
