[postgis-users] Problem with Z coordinate using postgis-jts

Thanks Kevin. I'm using your solution. However, there is another real
difference: it takes twice the time to parse with that method. I have
inserted this code to test:
        String geom = rs.getString(2);

        WKBReader reader = new WKBReader();
        JtsBinaryParser parser = new JtsBinaryParser();
        String bytes = rs.getString(2);
        long t1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
        for (int i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) {
            Geometry g = parser.parse(bytes);
        }
        long t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
        System.out.println((t2 - t1) / 1000000.0);
        t1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
        for (int i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) {
            Geometry g = reader.read(WKBReader.hexToBytes(geom));
        }
        t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
        System.out.println((t2 - t1) / 1000000.0);

Is the postgis-jts stuff supported at all? My ignorance says it's not
difficult to fix... I'm taking a look at the source to see if I can see
something.

Fernando.
