I have added the URL to the GIST SGML docs.
Hi,
I've put R-Tree realization using GiST (yet another test of our changes in
gist code )on my gist page http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/
Also, I've put some GiST related papers for interested readers.
The package( contrib-rtree_box_gist.tar.gz ) is built for 7.1.
If you find it's interesting you may include it into contrib area for 7.1
from README.rtree_box_gist:
1. One interesting thing is that insertion time for built-in R-Tree is
about 8 times more than ones for GiST implementation of R-Tree !!!
2. Postmaster requires much more memory for built-in R-Tree
3. Search time depends on dataset. In our case we got:
++---+--+
