I think the performance would depend more on how well you modify it  
for your own processes and how much you modify your processes for  
PVCS. I do know that when it was brought in house in the late 90s, a  
lot of hacks had to put on it to make it support our needs. It is  
given that it needs to be on a standalone box, with plenty of DASD  
and fast processors.

PVCS ships with a license for Oracle, so you are still stuck with it.  
I have no idea if you can swap databases, but I would doubt it.
