Yep. Also, it's REAL easy to stick a caching layer like memcached into the middle tier app layer, but nearly impossible to do so in pgsql. For large systems, this would make pg as an app server a nogo. But for small to medium sized systems that don't need caching it could work out. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
