Hi all, was simply wondering. Could it be possible that in the future, PostGIS take advantage of available hardware like video-cards to perform geo calculations ? I mean, representing a few thousand polygons and performing spatial calculations is something nVidia or ATI are doing pretty well.

Plus, for all of us who were gamers and who now have teens are already paying for all of this "science" :)

Max.
