Subject Firebird vs MySQL vs Postgres

For all those who asked for it:

http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=SpeedComparison


I believe it is safe to ignore stats for sqllite, as it is their
benchmark after all, but I suppose other DBs were treated equally.
Firebird seems to have done good, esp. since it was probably running
with forced writes (I guess it is the same as that sync thing).

BTW, I don't believe in benchmarks, but this one could be shown to
potential Firebird users who ask "is it better than this or that".
