Compare price of implementation. For that $100k on the oracle license you can toss in a few more gigs of memory and a few extra CPU's and perhaps 15k drives rather than 10k ones :) Then toss in the monthly support contracts between Oracle & Great Bridge (or Pgsql.inc if you can get anyone on their staff) and all of a sudden you can afford to upgrade the hardware more often and have a developer write some work arounds for the slower parts of the program. Anyway, the point is to compare the 2 products where the price is similar (installation wide). If postgres is faster, then reduce the hardware till they are a similar speed level. Now you do a price comparison and take it to business. 'Cheaper software, but slightly more expensive hardware means a lower priced package with similar performance'. -- Rod Taylor Your eyes are weary from staring at the CRT. You feel sleepy.
