We're about to release brand new contrib module which is actually is a first step of integration of OpenFTS to postgres. Preliminary numbers are rather impressive -
zen:~/app/pgsql/GiST/tsearch_index$ time psql-dev apod -c \ "select title from titles where titleidx @@ 'gist&patch';" > /dev/null real 0m0.070s user 0m0.010s sys 0m0.000s Table 'titles' contains 377905 titles from various mailing lists we accumulate in our mailware projects. apod=# select count(*) from titles; count -------- 377905 (1 row) This contrib is based on our GiST development and will work only with 7.2. We need maximum a week to finish, test, benchmark and document.
