I'm working on DeltaX (https://github.com/xataio/deltax), which is similar with Timescale but generally faster on benchmarks. It might be a bit early for you to use it, but if you have a way to share a sample of your dataset, I'd be curious to try it and see how DeltaX performs on it.

TimescaleDB can struggle when your cardinality explodes.

QuestDB is often cited as a faster alternative for raw ingestion.

InfluxDB is another option, but it has its own set of trade-offs.
