We use RT with PostgreSQL for all internal IT requests and development/support/doc tasks on a couple products, and there's never been a problem. Are the queries optimal? no. The alternative might have been MySQL-only, and that would be worse. I can't really give a fair estimate on performance, because I'm running it on a PIII at 800MHz with several other things as well. But it's fast enough that I'm not screaming for a hardware upgrade.
