Thanks for this link. Are there any others (or books) you can
recommend on the subject ? I do need to read up on this again.

The current c't also has some nice material (placing
PostgreSQL among the likes of Firebird/Interbase and SAP DB,
noting that the only major area of lacking towards Oracle/DB2
is sturdy support for distributed table spaces/clustering).
