Title: SQL Speedrun: Optimizing Queries for Crypto Database Conversions

Hey fellow devs, I've been trying to optimize a database conversion script for our crypto trading platform and I'm stuck on query performance. We're dealing with massive datasets and I've noticed significant lag times on simple joins and aggregates. Can anyone share their SQL tuning techniques or favorite optimizations for similar database workloads?

"Lol what's the database setup looking like? Are y'all using a traditional RDMS like MySQL or something more bespoke like TimescaleDB? Either way, I'm curious to see the before-and-after benchmarks."

"Yea, I totally agree with @sql_savant on using denormalized tables for high-frequency inserts. In my experience, it helped speed up conversions for a large BTC exchange database. Anyone having luck with index-only scans for similar use cases?"
