Hm, I cannot confirm your observation here. Our largest catalog has 600,000,000 file table entries on a 64GB server that also runs the director with about half of that allocated to the innodb buffers, and while it's not exactly a speed daemon when restoring stuff it's also no slouch, backing up over 300 clients and about 10TB of data on average every day. I doubt postgres would perform much better with a similar sized catalog on the same hardware. We're using MariaDB 5.5x if that has anything to do with it.
