 * Hello All,
 * I am thinking over using the plugin PG4WP and reading about I faced this:
 * “If you want to use this plugin, you should be aware of the following : – WordPress
   with PG4WP is expected to be slower than the original WordPress with MySQL because
   PG4WP does much SQL rewriting for any page view – Some WordPress plugins should
   work ‘out of the box’ but many plugins won’t because they would need specific
   code in PG4WP”
 * Is there anyone that has found performance issues when using the plugin in terms
   of DB speed?
 * Many thanks!
 * Mario
