| If you *really*:
|
| a) don't need transactions now
|
| and
|
| b) won't need transactions ever
|
| then MySQL could be fine.
|
| However Postgresql is both both dramatically faster and dramatically more
| stable for most "high load" applications such as you are interested in:

Just read the fine print on this one, that's across ODBC connections.
I guess it's the only interface for standardised testing though, although
they could have gone to the trouble to use native interfaces, but, I suspect
the performance would turn out to be crappy for all the major players involved.
