Yes, querying the geometries is very slow currently because of the fact that the spatial and topological index is kept in memory and not on file, so every time you launch an interactive query, it has to rebuild it which is very slow on large vectors. See

Does someone remember the reason why the spatial index is not (no longer?) written to a file? Once the spatial index is (again?) written to a file, all that rebuilding could be avoided by reading from the file, that alone could give a speed increase.
