Maybe he's running an older version that hasn't had create db
optimized? Maybe he's looking at exactly the wrong place to be
deciding which db is faster? Seriously, from the perspective of a DBA
with a db in the hundreds of gigabytes, how long it takes to create an
empty one is exactly 0% interesting to me, unless it somehow becomes
minutes or something weird, which it hasn't.
How well a db runs with hundreds of active connections and queries,
and running complex operations is interesting. This? Not so much.
