Oracle Yes, PostgreSQL is not written by DC so I don't know.  I suspect
yes.

Not on Oracle.  The Oracle DA is fully concurrent.  Postgres, I don't
know.  Possible not.  Note that if a DA is not concurrent it's not
Zope's fault, it's usually because the client libraries to interface
that database are not concurrent.

Then stick with Oracle.
