What are your plans for postgresql on Windows? Just by the nature of the
OS, I'd never expect too much performance from a Cygwin app, especially
one like postgresql. Do you plan on running it on 98 in a production
manner?

My own experience is that postgresql runs quite a bit slower on WinMe than
my NetBSD box (same hardware), but I don't consider that to be a problem.
