Brian - Are you talking about a complete SAP solution or SAPDB? Because, either way, the quality of the solution depends entirely on the skills of the people implementing it. I suspect your issue is really with the people that put it together.
My group has taken a number of our Oracle applications over to SAPDB and the database performs beautifully. Aside from having to change some SQL, we have run into no problems and found this to be a more effective solution than mySql or even postGres.
