List pgsql-general
  Since I've posted a number of times to this list, it's no big secret
that www.iboats.com is powered by Postgres.  It's been rock-solid for us,
and served us very well.  Our data directory is about 1.5 gigs in size,
spread out over a few hundred tables, some very small, some very large.
We do all of our programming in Perl.  Investers have never heard of
Postgres, and sometimes mention getting Oracle, so we tell them "Terrific,
if you want us to get Oracle, we can do that.  We'll just need an extra
half-million dollars to do it with."   Reality then slaps them in the
face.....
