Performance since PostgreSQL 7.4 with pgbench
I'm just wondering - where does PostgreSQL stand with those numbers vs MySQL? Did someone perform similar benchmarks comparing the two in such workloads?<p>Searching finds surprisingly outdated information.. Lots of articles say things like "For simple read-heavy operations, PostgreSQL can be an over-kill and might appear less performant than the counterparts, such as MySQL." but don't really back them up...
