For the time being, the only reasonable way to deal with these massive
datasets is to *not* build topology. It's not not only the spatial index
that is getting out of hand, also topology itself and the category
index. The grass vector libs must be told that there is nothing special
about point datasets (to cite Hamish) which means rewriting major parts
of the vector libs, and that takes time.
