2. Oracle, Microsoft, and IBM have a "lot" to fear in the sense of a
database like PostgreSQL. We can compete in 90-95% of cases where
people would traditionally purchase a proprietary system for many,
many thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of dollars.
Oracle also fears benchmarks made by people who don't know how to
tune Oracle properly...
Yes that is one argument that is made (and a valid one) but it is
assuredly not the only one that can be made, that would be legitimate.
