Show HN: Streambench – Native Mac Client for Kafka and NATS

Why does the output of 'strings' have things like this in the binary?

This is cool! Visibility into streams is one of the developer papercuts that my team struggles with, specifically on NATS JetStream which doesn't have a schema registry.

I am working on a similar use-case by creating a DuckDB extension that can stream from NATS JetsStream: https://github.com/quantike/duckstream

Still early days on feature support, but querying with SQL in DuckDB is the path I've been going.

I will need to give this a try.

Currently Mac OS only (since that's what I use). But if there is demand for Windows/Linux, happy to work on it :)
