The first question is do you really need all the columns. Most times
you don't need them. There will be network overhead for sure in
returning all columns instead of just the few that you want. Also
select * is not very clear with what is going on in the statement.

Doesn't that really only save you from having someone come in at the OS

I have used PL/SQL for years. It's a great language that is easy to pick up and offers lots of ability/promise. The syntax seems very easy for new people to pick up who might know another language or are just starting out. Of course the same can be said of Ada code. It's just very easy to read.
I am new to databases and would like togain some idea of the sizes of

PL/SQL is awesome just awesome no doubt about it.
But if you like to pay at a minium for 5 users 800 bucks then stick with PL/SQL. I personally can live with pl/psql and at a higher level postgresql to be honest. Not to mention the rate that things are being added and improved is mind numbing.
Keep in mind there is no built in API to debug PL/pgSQL like there is for PL/SQL. You will have to use the old true and tried output statements to debug your stored procs.
