I for one think that we should do comparisons with *all* major databases, not
just MySQL. In fact, maybe we should start with Oracle, DB2, or (my
favorite) MS SQL Server first. Go where the money is, y'know?
Especially since most of (certainly not all of) the MySQL people have been
trying to patch things up lately.
