 I don't if it possible to get such information, as I would think it be
illegal to tell anybody (publish) the results if Postgresql and MSQL were
benchmarked together.  This is the whole point of the Oracle challege.
The only MSSQL benchmarks available are those produced by Microsoft,
because no body else is allowed to publish results.  The only thing that
can be done, is to try to build an identical test system that Microsoft
used, and run the postgresql tests on it.
