I downloaded the source for this test, but they do not include the data
they used, only the schema etc...

There was at least one PG-Team lead by Alvar Freude, I guess he can
give more details.

However, that article gives no background about the contest and the
benchmark and how the results cam off, so it's more or less useless.

I didn't buy the c't issue where the final results where posted,
unfortunately I can't find them online.

pgsql-advocacy)
