There is an SQL-version of Postgres called Postgres95. Postgres95 is
derived from the last official release (4.2) of POSTGRES. We replace
Postquel with SQL and also remove some features that do not work. The
code size has been reduced by 25% and it runs about 30-50% faster compared
with v4.2 (on the Wisconsin Benchmark).

Unfortunately, this is a pet project of mine and Jolly Chen and we don't have
a scheduled release date. However, if anyone is interested, we will be
happy to provide a you copy.

Postgres95 has been tested on Alpha (OSF 2.1, 3.0), DECStation (Ultrix 4.4),
SPARC (SunOS 4.1.3), SPARC (Solaris 2.4), HP 9000/700 (HPUX 9.0). An NT
port is in the works.
