Sadly, there's very little in the way of meaningful benchmarks,
especially ones that aren't ancient. A SQLite user recently did some
testing, but his workload was a single-user case, something that SQLite
is ideally suited for (and not very interesting for anything in the
enterprise world).

I've been wanting to do a PostgreSQL vs MySQL head-to-head using DBT2
for some time. I even have hardware to do it on. What I haven't been
able to find is the time. If this is something you'd be interested in
helping with, please let me know. Depending on how much work you wanted
to do there could be money in it as well (Pervasive would pay for a
performance comparison whitepaper).
