This's great. I have tested Postgres and MySQL with the benchmark shipped with mysql and (of course) MySQL out perform Postgres.

So how many simultaneous read/write processes does the MySQL benchmark fire up?

Why test a benchmark provided by the mysql folk? That's like trying the benchmark
provided by Intel for the initial Pentium 4 announcement and ignoring all the
benchmarks they didn't provide you because AMD thunderbird+DDR (AMD 760 chipset)
kicks P4 butt on many of them.

I should hope you're not so naive as to suppose that the MySQL folk would ship a
benchmark showing better performance by PG (or Oracle, or Sybase etc)?

I also hope that the PG crew, and Great Bridge, never stoop so low as to ship
benchmarks wired to "prove" PG's superiority.

They MySQL folk have been liars and cheaters for years, there's no reason to
put any faith into their benchmark efforts.
