'quite a bit'?  Can you quantify this or is it also an impression?

I'm not trying to be mean but I think it is important to use facts in
technical discussions.

Based on my experience with these types of problems, I don't think
there's much.  I found an egregious issue.  That's a good thing
because that means once it is resolved, it'll solve a lot of the
problems I've read about:  fans going crazy, etc.

What multi-user database engine would you advocate?  While conformance
to ACID[1] is not mandatory, it is nice to have.
