Just to comply with common language on this list: Do you have the
slightes proof that backs this allegation ?

People are trying to pin me down on performance comparisons of the OSM
model vs. PostGIS. Alleging that "an OGC database" would be much slower
doesn't without having these performance numbers it not entirely wise
in such a context.
