The difference is that a "better" admin tool is very subjective where as
a buffer strategy is not... or maybe the difference is really that
everyone thinks they are qualified to pick a "better" admin tool, but
very few can really argue as to a better buffer strategy. While I think
your criteria is pretty close to what I would use, I still couldn't pick
which is the best between pgtcl/pgtclng/pgintcl or pypgsql/pygresql...
and even I did I bet some people would have a problem with my choices.
