I keep seeing this, but I sometimes see the opposite.  That "MySQL is faster"
meme seems peristent though, as if the PostgreSQL want to provide *some*
justification for people to continue to have a reason for MySQL.

Given the cost of programmer time (and the cost of lost data) vs the
cost of a slightly faster processor, is it ever really worth it even
if MySQL is *twice* as fast?

OpenBSD is secure.
NetBSD is portable.
PostgreSQL has more features.
mySQL is fast.

It seems that quick characterizations are quite popular.
