   I am pretty sure it wouldn't. Postgres is slow (I think you compare it
to MySQL) because it has all moder features MySQL lacks - transactions,
triggers and rules.
   If you look into mysql's docs you'll find there a note in TODO: mysql
will never implement triggers/rules as it slows down the system
considerably - triggers conditions must be checked on every query, for all
queries.
