Heaps of low-end Oracle users are switching to PostgreSQL all the time. They complained that the admin overhead for PostgreSQL was far too low. They missed having to create rollback segments and having queries fail when [Quoted] there wasn't enough segments, that they had to run in special partitions etc. Basically, it wasn't painful enough.
Hence, we will be adding extra Pain In The Rectum support in 7.4 :)
