Mysql works well - if tuned, but tuning is a major undertaking when 
things get large/busy and may take several iterations.

The main advantage I've found to Postgress is that when you have a very 
large database (100+ million entries) it has a far smaller memory/CPU 
footprint (Half the memory and about 1/4 the cpu load).

It's also largely self-tuning - which lets me get on with the business 
of running backups instead of monitoring database performance...
