Did you (or anyone else) ever get a response? It's easy to find this 70K
number on the web, but not so easy to find out more details. Frankly, it's
an unbelievable claim at face value, so I am assuming there are some
major caveats. It is certainly not a number I suspect we can even come close
to competing with, even were we to be able to gather that information (which
seems a Sisyphean given the many and shifting ways of installing Postgres).
