That is how I read it too. It serves as a great example to show how the setup 
of a benchmark can influence the results.

Testing took several months (especially of the Sun Niagara), so it is actually 
a snapshot of PostgreSQL 8.2dev from this summer, i.e. not the version that was 
released yesterday. A development release of MySQL 5.1.x of about the same time 
was also tested, but it was unstable and the results were not published.
