Hi.  I was promoting PostgreSQL to an AIX/Oracle shop yesterday, they are
looking to switch to open source to cut their licensing costs, and was
asked how large a database does PostgreSQL support?  Is there an upper
bound on database size and if so, what it is?

According to yahoo...:

...pretty big. But yahoo threw some programmers at it, I believe.

Straight out of the box? Not sure, but I'd expect many on this list have databases larger than "enterprise oracle" shops.
