But how well are those open source databases instrumented ? How deep under
the hood can you look when stuff doesn't run as fast as you'd like it to
(other than reading the source code to try and figure out what's going on) ?
For me that is one of the most important features of an rdbms database - and
Oracle's instrumentation kicks butt :)

Agree, I was asked to "pick my own poison" from the open source world a
few years ago, before EnterpriseDB exited.  If you are going to use an open
source db I'd highly recommend PostGreSql over ALL of the other offerings
out there, particularly MySql.

We use Postgres for a small application and I evaluated EnterpriseDB
earlier this year for its replication functionality so that we could
replicate transactions from the primary Production database server to a
failover server.  I did a basic functional test, not a smoke test.  I was
able to install it and set up the replication without much heartache.  Their
technical support was quite good especially compared to a similar company's
product that we evaluated.
