I use both databases in production environments and consider Oracle to be superior. Although, the functionality of both of these databases are comparable, the real issue is support. I believe support and the quality of those that support the product to be a greater issue than whether the database is on the top 10 of the TPC benchmarks.
By the way, unless your company is spending 10-50 million dollars on a database hardware/software configuration and doing several hundred thousand transactions a minute I would not worry about TPC benchmark results. Both Microsoft and Oracle parade around with these benchmarks but they mean very little unless your Yahoo or EBay.
Good luck on this never ending topic....
