For that matter, which one is my "primary" database?
My biggest? The one with my highest paying customer? The
one I spend the most time on? The one with the highest
transaction rate?
I have some large ones that are pretty static (holding tons of
shapefiles imported to postgis), and smaller ones that are
much more active.
Unlike Oracle where their pricing model encourages you to
squeeze as much as you can into one database, I imagine many
organizations use many postgres databases.
Maybe questions like "how many production postgres databases
do you deal with", and maybe even "how many devel ones" would
be interesting. Maybe even "what's the total size, total TPS,
and total number of end users of the production databases".
