We talk a little bit in https://tembo.io/blog/managed-postgres-rust about how we use PGMQ to run our SaaS at Tembo.io. We could have ran a Redis instance and used RSMQ, but it simplified our architecture to stick with Postgres rather than bringing in Redis.

As for scaling - normal Postgres scaling rules apply. max_connections will determine how many concurrent applications can connect. The queue workload (many insert, read, update, delete) is very OLTP-like IMO, and Postgres handles that very well. We wrote some about dealing with bloat in this blog: https://tembo.io/blog/optimizing-postgres-auto-vacuum
