Allow me to quote from my response to your previous message back in

First, you may want to post this in the GENERAL or in the PERFORMANCE
lists since this isn't really about SQL.

Second, you may want to look at the case studies page:
http://www.postgresql.org/about/casestudies/.

Third, the companies like EnterpriseDB and Pervasive may have some of
what you're looking for since they have to measure themselves against
the competition.

And remember to take any numbers with a large grain of salt, YMMV, etc.

Performance should not be the *only* consideration when comparing products.

Any test to compare products done by someone else may not reflect the type 
of work you plan to do with the product.  Different tests could easily 
favour different products.  Your hardware and OS might favour a different 
result than my hardware and OS.  Therefore, only your own comparisons 
(performance or otherwise) can produce meaningful results. 

Thank you all. Those are quite important questions to considerate. About the late time of requisitions. I allways have replyes becouse 3:00 am in brazil does not means 3:00 in many other countries.

I experiment it in other free communities too.

My Brat Regards
