Recent OS benchmarks (nothing specific to PostgreSQL) were compared to
FreeBSD 5.3 and posted at:

I don't know enough to apply the information to the discussion at hand;
but maybe you'll find it useful.
My biggest beef with NetBSD is that there's so much you have to
configure by hand in the base installation -- much more so than even
FreeBSD because of the portability goals of NetBSD. On the other hand,
(thanks to articles by Michael Lucas) my Nec MobilePro 780, a large pda
with keyboard, now runs NetBSD 1.6.2; and has grown up to be a real
computer! You have to take the good with the bad, I suppose.
