Re: postgresql in my experience it's neither cumbersome nor slow. Feel free to email me for help if you would like to explore that route.

Are the paths in you qgs file relative or absolute? If their relative, is the issue that the path separator is different? If that is the issue, I would file a bug report. (If they are absolute, try saving them with relative paths.)
