So, anyone from migrated servers noticed any benefit (faster zoning, less lag or whatever)?

To be honest I really can not tell any difference. I had an odd thing happen in broken skull bay last night where the sound spazzed out like it had lagged. But the spell lag is still the same. Nothing really looks faster. However I not raided in 9 months and that is where most of the lag is. Possibly maybe ask a raider if they raid zones are better as far as lag/

EnterpriseDB has an Oracle compatibility mode.

That will allow them to run the database practically as is without having to modify the data types or change much of any stored procedure code.
So unless the PostgreSQL engine is that much more efficient than Oracle or they did some data structure optimizations, this was most likely just a cost savings effort. (EnterpriseDB licensing is cheaper than Oracle licensing.)
