Its never as simple and clear as that, and to think it is would be quite ignorant. MySQL is intended for small and medium sized databases, and database benchmarks never serve the same meaning as a real-world application since typically your database isn't even the bottleneck.
Find one you like, whether its MSSQL, MySQL, Postgre, Oracle, SQLite, etc, make sure it suits your needs and use it. For anything less than half a GB of data and/or performing less than one query a second, you shouldn't even care what database you're using as long as it works.
