MS Access, pgsqlODBC and PostgreSQL in Linux via Crossover Office --> not reliable

A while back I posted a message saying that I got MS
Access to connect to PostgreSQL via pgsqlODBC while
all of them were running together in Linux via
Crossover Office 2.0.

Although initial test results were very hopeful, I'm
finding that this setup is not reliable.  There have
been many cases where MS Access would crash or would
not respond after PostgreSQL was done with its job.

I'm still hopeful for the future; but it's not ready
for any level of production use.

I look forward to seeing the native Windows port of
PostgreSQL.  Will performance be comparable to Unix
versions?

Probably not.  for one thing, it'll be a new port, and for another, it 
will still optimized for Unix primarily, and any optimizations for Windows 
that get in the way of Unix optimizations or require IFDEFs all over the 
code are likely to not be accepted.

However, the earlier testing with the 7.2.1 windows port showed it to be 
MUCH faster than running postgresql under cygwin.
