[postgis-users] Performance Help

[Alan Cunnane]

By stored procedures what do you mean exactly? Do you mean in a Perl script or something similar?

Tricky :(

I guess the only thing you can do in that case is check the query plans
just before and just after the point at which the query plan
deteriorates and try and spot the difference.

Are you allowed to use stored procedures for your solution? Due to the
recursive-type nature of some of the queries you will need, it may be
possible to come up with something more efficient that way.


HTH,
