I am passionate about this issue for only two reasons:
- MySQL does not support subqueries
- MySQL does not support UNION statements

These two together have made some of my ad-hoc queries nearly impossible, and have 
driven me to stick with PostgreSQL.  It's been very reliable for me.  If ever MySQL 
includes these features, I might consider moving to it (and thanks to OJB, it will be 
a breeze to move!), but for now I love Postgres.  For the kind of applications that I 
write, flexibility is far more important than speed.

Best of luck in choosing the right one.  Either way, I think you'll find that OJB 
makes it really easy to forget about which database is under the covers.

Enjoy!
