Andrew,
I disagree, I wouldn't want to contend with all the complexities
and kludge of Oracle thank you very much. If there was a way to get
PostgreSQL to do better than the current clustering methods, then why not, it
would be a
big win for us.

But if real, ORAC-style clustering is what you nee
Note that pgcluster is statement-based, which has some drawbacks. AFAIK
MySQL's 'clustering' is as well.
Many people use Slony to replicate to many slaves and use pgpool to hit
them. But remember if you do that you need to make sure any statement
that changes data hits your master and not the slav
Don't forget that MySQL replication also has a habit of silently
failing on you and in my experience needs continuous monitoring to
make sure it actually keeps reasonably up to date (e.g. not days of
data behind on the slaves.)
That was a while ago though, maybe they fixed it?

Hello Travis,
I don't know if there are a Oracle RAC style cluster system for
PGSQL but this software that can do something similar,
http://pgcluster.projects.postgresql.org/feature.html may help.
You can always use Slony for replication services.
