I love PG but would never use it for message queueing. Postgres needs periodic table maintenance, autovacuum tuning for tables with high number of writes, and IMO can never be as good as RabbitMQ for distributed task queues. RabbitMQ is purpose built around messages and it's extremely reliable and performant.
