Has anybody used GIS successfully in MySQL or PGSQL and can tell me how the performance compares between the two techniques?
At least in PostgreSQL/PostGIS, the geometric indices are WAY faster. Just remember to either use the ST_* family of predicates (implicit bounding box scan) or add an "&&" term to do an explicit bounding box scan so the index is actually used.
