You misread my post.  I am a Postgres fan, not foe.  

I'm saying that Asterisk itself shouldn't have ANY SQL-db-specific code in it, 
it should be 100% ODBC and then let anyone use what they want.  If you need 
that much more raw performance... well guess what, that's an excellent little 
niche to write a custom driver and make some money.

Been there, done that, use Postgres now, although I think after I left they 
went to MySQL and went to a very "fast and loose" setup where they use 
numerous DBs which feed back to a pair of masters and don't worry about the 
individual performance issues.
