I am looking at porting a web application from FrontBase to
Postgresql. If anybody has some tips on how to deal with
this, I'd appreciate hearing him. Thanks.

Thanks, that looks interesting. Even if it doesn't work out for
porting, I will have to play with it. ;)
BTW, I ported a few of the tables and one of the queries. The timing
difference is quite amazing:
FrontBase: 13 seconds
Postgresql: 42 msec
There's a lot of incentive to do the port ;)
