I know of no disadvantages that are not a direct result of Windows.
Such things as the shared memory implementation, process switching,
general sluggishness, gui (if it a strictly server situation), etc.
Besides, PostgreSQL is fundamentally a 'unix thing'. It would be rather
like running MS Access on FreeBSD, only better because PostgreSQL is Just
That Good.
That said, you should have no trouble at all, and performance should be
reasonable.
