Just one note: You say that postgres has no multi-processor support. I think
this is rather missleading and not true for most situations.
While it's correct that postgres cannot make use for more than one processor
for a single query/connection, for multiple connections it will happily run
on as much cpus you give it. At least for typical OLTP use, postgres has
multi-processor support.
