Hello, I'm new to PostgreSQL and see that there are 3 versions in the Ports and=20 bsd.mk.ports defaults to 7.4 to resolve pgsql dependencies. I yahood/msnd/googled a lot but couldn't find a comprehensive comparison=20 regarding features/performance. There are severaly MySQL comparisions but=20 that aren't of interest any more since that's what I've been using before. So please can one explain me in short words what the main featrue differenc= e=20 is between 7.4, 8.1, 8.2? (I found out that 7.4 and 8.2 are incompatible=20 regarding php5-pgsql conjunction) And what are the main performace differences (for a very small site) betwee= n=20 7.4, 8.1 and 8.2? If it's not obvious (with the above answered), why are there 3 stable=20 branches? Thanks a lot in advance, =2DHarry =2D-=20 OmniSEC - UNIX und Windows Netzwerke - Sicher Harald Schmalzbauer =46lintsbacher Str. 3 80686 M=FCnchen +49 (0) 89 18947781 +49 (0) 160 93860101
