Keep in mind that postgres is not made of silver bullets either: you still need to give it enough ram, i/o, and cpu cores to get adequate performance on large joins (e.g. building a list of backed up files form a year's worth of backups of a few million files). However, IMO even if you have to buy a complete new server for it, that's much cheaper than dealing with mysql. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
