Google for Mysql vs Postgresql and you will find lots of link related to
that and you will finally conclude that both are equally good and there
is no specific benchmarking tool. You should find an article on
phpbuilder which says Postgresql is better than Mysql and  how
sourceforge.net performed a real time analysis by shifting from mysql to
Postgresql.  Mysql site has justifications for this. But i think
sourceforge.net uses db2 now.
  On the whole the performance tuning plays a critical role and the
version of the db you use also makes a difference. Postgresql is more
full fledged with supports for subqueries, transactions and everything.
Mysql is also coming with this support by providing different table
types like Berkeley DB tables and InnoDB tables.
