I gotta say, I'm hardly convinced that Postgre is that astoundingly better

For a few special pages (recent changes and lonely pages) I needed nested
subqueries, but MySQL doesn't have those. As a consequence I had to write
some PHP code for some high volume data processing that can be done far more
efficiently by the database.
