    There are now so many &amp;quot;backends&amp;quot; for {dplyr}—duckdb with {duckplyr}, polars with {tidypolars}, various database engines with {dbplyr}, {data.table} with {dtplyr}. Is there a blog post or flow chart somewhere with pros and cons of each? Like, comparisons of memory requirements, speed, and how likely they are to &amp;quot;just work&amp;quot;? #rstats #duckdb #dplyr #tidyverse #polars
