Admins often don't have a choice, but a company strategy to use win
only. Deciding on the platform before examining the app's requirements
is always a bad idea, but that's what happens. Respecting this,
suggesting "don't use win32 for high performance pgsql databasing" is
equivalent to "don't use pgsql".
