Actually that's *the* reason --- it's always going to be hard for
Postgres to look good for an application that's been designed/optimized
for MySQL.  The application has already made whatever compromises it
had to for that platform, and dropping it onto a different DB won't
magically undo them.

Some days I think database independence is a myth.
