Yes, on the queries that I've done (mostly friendship graphs, and doing queries like getting friends of friends) postgres was pretty much on par with neo4j. I'm way more familiar with tuning postgres though, so there's that.
I really liked the cypher query language of neo4j, it was super easy to learn and is way simpler to express complex traversals across a graph. Writing a query in postgres to traverse a graph isn't as straightforward, and unless you're doing it often will take a long time to get used to.
