I'm guessing you mean 4000+ servers.  There would likely be a problem
if you were to use Oracle XE and even then it would be less of problem
with the number of servers, more of a problem with the number of
channels (and arches) that you sync.  For example, on Oracle XE I ran
out of space by syncing RHEL4 (x86_64) + EPEL and RHEL5 (x86_54) +
EPEL, with only 50 or so clients.

If you use a 'real' Oracle server then you should be fine.  The
postgresql port is progressing but its a long term thing.

Hope that helps
