So it appears that mySQL is much faster?

Subject: MySQL vs PostgreSQL


I've long recommended PostgreSQL as a very viable and capable enterprise
alternative to MS SQL or MySQL. While there's nothing inherently wrong
with either of those databases, PostgreSQL has a much more liberal
license. You could pack it up, rebrand it, and sell it right along with
your own CFML apps. You can't say that for MS SQL or MySQL.

With that in mind, I found this independent test of MySQL 5 vs
PostgreSQL 8 to be extremely interesting. I know that all benchmarks are
relative, and you'll probably experience different results with your own
databases, but the results here are so dramatic it's pretty difficult to
argue with. Check it out:

Hopefully some of you find this as interesting as I did.
