Conclusion
MariabDB & MySQL has slight advantages at database writing
PostgreSQL has slight advantages at simple database read query
PostgreSQL has big advantages at complex database read query
As a result, I think that choosing PostgreSQL is a better options for RDBMS – provided that PostgreSQL comes with more features and following standard SQL.
