I noticed an interesting benchmark at tweakers.net that shows mysql not
scaling very well on hyperthreading and multicore cpus (see links at end
of email).

Does anyone know what engine they are using for their tests? (Innodb,
myisam, berkdb heheh)

In fact they seem to show that postgres is a faster db overall.  This
goes against my personal experience where I benchmarked a real world app
we have and found mysql 10 to 100 times faster, and that was ignoring
both postgres poor connection performance and the hideous vacuum
rigmarole.  But that was 2 years ago, maybe postgres performance has
finally caught up?

Any other recent benchmark links?
