Depends on the workload - for few users that don't care about ACID,
MySQL is definitely faster. Once you throw ACID into the mix MySQL
slows down a lot and if you then scale up to more than a few dozen
users, PostgreSQL actually ends up being faster.

That said, MythTV is definitely in the first category so as much as I
like PostgreSQL I can see no advantage in moving to it for MythTV.
