CI vs. PDO vs. ADOdb vs. PEAR::DB

Anyone know how CI's database abstraction compares to the others? I'm guessing it may not support myriads of db's out there like some of the others (who cares as long as it supports the 'typical' ones?), but how about speed?

I saw where it looks like Zend Framework uses PDO. I saw some entries in the wiki a need to use PDO and ADOdb (http://adodb.sourceforge.net/) .... perhaps because people wanted to use other classes?

Why did CI reinvent the wheel (if it did?)? I came across some links looking around I'm just including for (my) reference:
