vsftpd or pure-ftpd?



I am in the process of building a new ftp-server.  The old one used
vsftpd and it performed well.

I have recently become aware of pure-ftpd which seems to have more
features like using an sql-database for user definitions, quotas etc.

Our setup is like this: It is a unversity campus's ftp-server. Most of
the usage comes from anonymous users.  There are also some chrooted
users who use the server.  At the moment, with vsftpd, I have to
register them as users on the server to be able to use this service.  

I would like to have some opinions on the pro's and con's of vsftpd
and pure-ftpd-postgresql please.

Regards
Johann
