I don't know how our marketing came up third most popular but I think the
order is, Oracle, MySQL, and PostgreSQL or maybe Oracle, MSSQL and
PostgreSQL. I'm sure there is some criterion by which PostgreSQL is tenth

Of course, my posting was about Point In Time Recovery and not multera

would be MySQL (though that seems doubtful at this point with Nusphere),
and PostgreSQL.
Actually, PostgreSQL is #1 in my home.
