So, what do people say? Is Postgres perfect in your world or does it do some
things which rub you the wrong way?

* No offer of anything-but-CVS on pgfoundry.org

* Lack of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY

* Too many obscure configuration options: memory management, autovacuum management, freespace map, background writer, WAL.

* Writing robust scripts with psql is difficult and bizarre.

* Default postgresql.conf is too long and verbose.

* Default logging configuration is too minimal.

* Difficult to trace nested things, e.g., nested PL/pgSQL calls, cascaded foreign key actions.

* No basic health checking: Answering the question, "Is this system configured reasonably and running smoothly" takes two days of training and half a day of work.

* Too much accumulated historical garbage that is never cleared out.
