Gee, I think we can detect which way you're bias inclines you without much difficulty.

For my 2 centidollars, I use MySQL on Linux with much success. I have found it to be very fast, even with large datasets, although my idea of large is much smaller than some of these TB cowboys. I mostly work in lowly GB. ;-)

    My comments concerning MySQL stem from a few things:
    • Experience working with High Traffic sites that had some painful crash and burns using MySQL. (Back your ass up, baby!)
    • The fact that MySQL cuts a few RDBMS corners that I consider important in order to get a speed boost.
