[postgis-users] ST_Overlaps and performance

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Explain looks good.

Have you done anything to tune postgresql to use more memory or are you 
using the default parameters that came with the install. postgresql by 
default is configured to use minimal memory. If its the default, then I 
would google for "tuning postgresql" and look at shared_buffers 
specifically, there are probably others that can be opened up also but 
it really depends on the amount of memory you have, the OS, what other 
applications are running and using memory concurrently, etc.
