(It isn't surprising that there would be far worse support for
proprietary databases, as few people are in a position to use them.)

I would guess that the interfaces to Oracle Spatial are not so different
From the postgis interfaces, and that you would be able to extend the
various tools that load into postgis (in support of mapnik rendering)
without extreme effort.

Are you trying to store the entire dataset in the schema used by the
rails port, or the schema used by mapnik, or a reduced set for your
analysis, or ?
