Hardly .5%... - see http://symas.com/mdb/microbench/ I do agree, however, that it is definitively better to focus on one thing and do it right rather than get lost in a bunch of random choices. The reason I asked was that it is currently being adopted by a lot of other open source projects, so I was curious to see what the PostgreSQL community's take on it was.
