Tyler,

What exactly do you mean by that? Is that something that could be fixed? 
To me it seems that the only problems could be that not all GEOS is 
exposed to GDAL and maybe in huge problems the use of WKB between GDAL 
and GEOS might be a bottle neck - but these haven't been problems to me.

Regards,

Ari
