I think that the biggest advantage seems to be fewer (none?) database 
locked errors that occur with SQLite.  As far as adminstrative overhead, 
  it's not much.  If you have postgresql already installed, they only 
"administration" that needs to be done is to create a db before running 
trac-admin.  And then on upgrades, you need to specify --no-backup, as 
trac-admin can't perform it automatically.

If you have a heavily used site that changes a lot, then an occasional 
vacuum of the database will help.

The biggest advantage for me is that I already use PostgreSQL in my 
environment.  By putting trac in PostgreSQL using schemas, I can easily 
have trac access data from my existing infrastructure.
