PostgreSQL (as being a really advanced RDBMS),
generally requires some tuning in order to get
the best performance.

Your best bet is to try both.

-Referential integrity
-subselects
-transactions
-(other usefull features like arrays,user defined types,etc..)
(its probable that you will need some of the above)
