Ned, I just love Postgres... I strongly believe it can compete
with major commercial DBMS, and that it rules over free DBMS
(be opensource or not, like MySQL).
But I think Postgres' performance should not be over-boasted,
because such behaviour could only mislead and possibly deceipt
future users. As a commercial consulting company, you might
consider adding some disclaimers to your benchmarks.
