No, it wasn't. They also tested the insert performance of a system without foreign keys and without transactions (MySQL MyISAM) against systems with foreign key handling and transactions.
It would be more or less the same, if you compare copy against insert performance on PostgreSQL and state that insert should be as fast as copy without saying why.
Btw: these guys claim to be database consultants. cug
