A relatively big plus for MySQL in serious environments is replication
and the whole MySQL Cluster bit. There are some promising tools such
as pgpool-II - http://snipr.com/1p518 - but it would be useful to see
something similar come bundled with PostgreSQL that I could install as
an option. Unless I am missing something..
