Actually I'd argue that pgsql gets better hardware since you can spend the money you'd spend on oracle licenses on hardware for pgsql. At $20k per cpu on oracle (or more if you need clustering, GIS, or a few other features) you can buy a pretty damned impressive pgsql server to compete. But definitely don't put pgsql on an old workstation and expect it to keep up with a real server running oracle that's been tuned properly. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
