Ahem, I think that says that *you* are supposed to do the comparison. Which
is probably why nobody here thought it was their task to do it for you. This
is a user/developer support, exchange and discussion list, not a term-papers
repository.

If you browse the archives of this list you will find more than enough about
the strengths and (past or current) weaknesses of eXist to get you started,
and a good idea of what sort of data it is currently being used to handle.
Then study the materials on Ron Bourret's site http://www.rpbourret.com/ to
get the bigger picture and an idea of what a meaningful comparison of native
XML dbs needs to cover.  You will also there find links to the dbXML site
and to SoftwareAG for Tamino, both of which will provide you with material
for feature comparisons. Performance comparisons you won't be able to do,
unless your site has a Tamino license or you have access to a lot of cash to
purchase one...
