Note that PostgreSQL's performance is on par with Oracle, though it
doesn't scale as well on the very high end.  PostgreSQL compares very
favorably to real DBMSes -- you have to realize that MySQL is not directly
comparable to Oracle, InterBase, nor PostgreSQL -- it's directly
comparable to products like Access, Foxpro, and Filemaker Pro.
