Heh :-) I meant an index, using the pg_trgm opclass (which indexes trigrams; hence the "trigram" part), on a function that would extract the text from a bytea column; instead of indexing the trigrams of the bytea column directly. Hence the "functional" part. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
