Furthermore, the MySQL engine is blisteringly fast on large databases.
If you have a database of just a few records, the differences are going to
be purely academic.

1. PostgreSQL vs. MySQL vs. mSQL
Hello all,
I am interested in learning some basic SQL skills. I have been digging
around on the web, going thru Deja, etc. looking for info on the merits
of one SQL program vs. another. Basically, the distilled version of
what I've seen so far isthis: PostgreSQL is the most feature complete
and potentially the most reliable for big databases, but kinda slow.
MySQL is blazingly fast, has most of the features commonly used, works
especially well w/ web applications, but doesn't have quite the feature
set of PostgreSQL, and doesn't do huge databases (as) well. mSQL aka
Mini SQL is also fast (as fast as MySQL?), and is definitely intended
for small data sets.
Most of the recommendations that I've seen pushed PostgreSQL for
reliability w/ big mission critical databases, and MySQL for all-out
speed and web stuff.
I am interested in _learning_ SQL, and as such I don't have a
particular _need_ for speed, huge database capability, etc. In this
case, is there one of these three that is best for learning from the
ground up about SQL? I would be interested in hearing peoples
impressions of the support and community related to each. That as much
as anything will play large role in my choice. I don't want to be
_near_ a group that flames on a whim, but I do accept the concept
of 'read first, ask second'.
Thanks for your time,
Monte
