I hate admining PostreSQL, and groan when some app I want to use requires it. Don't get me wrong: in a corp environment where someone else is responsible for backup/restore and permissions, pgsql > *. Tooling for it is great. It has every feature. But if I have to maintain it myself, I'll chose a single file to copy and back up every time: sqlite FTW.
