I have been developing with torque against postgre
7.2.1 & Mysql Max 3.23 for the past couple of months.
Both of them have been working fairly well.  Ran
preliminary stress test using Microsoft Web
Application Stress Tool - stressing the
Tomcat based web application accessing the DBs
and found that postgreSql was able to server 25% more
pages for my kind of application.

Before I proceed to the next phase of development I
would like to finalize on the database to use on the
basis of:

  1) Entire installation will be on Windows
         Licensing issues (cygwin reqmt for
postgre...)
  2) Performance
  3) Stability
  4) Store 40MB of Blobs - inline/offline BFILE kind
of support
  5) Transaction suport
  6) Subselect/Inner joins NOT a criteria
  7) Failover/Replication support
  8) Cheap(licensing/support/ease of administration)

Probably, I am asking too much off a free database :)
  
Found few articles but they do not cover the whole
gamut that I am looking for and seem to be old:

Appreciate any pointers or other forums I should be
posting my questions.

thanks,
naveen
