Yes, querying the geometries is very slow currently because of the

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.
