Speed when you read data, on insert it can slow down quite a lot. I don't
know about version 4.x, but older versions used to lock on write at the
table level; totally insane in my opinion.

It can also slow down developing since it doesn't enforce referential
integrity and you have to do it on the application (same for cascading
delete)

I really think that in this scenario Postgres is a much better alternative,
but maybe it's just me...
