We know. That's why PostgreSQL pilots hopefully clearer pricing structure where you choose how much CPU and RAM is needed and pay per CPU and GiB of ram. No more `db-nX-<something>-X`.

You'll still see instance size names for a while though. I think D0-D32 are for first generation of CloudSQL (which is MySQL only). db-* are for second generation and match GCE instance names.
