of course, sorry for being vague. I have an external process generating a XML file (every 30 secs) which is about 10MB. I would like to store the file as XML type for me to query using xpath. I plan to query it every few seconds by few hundred clients. so, it maybe easier for me create a separate table of my xpath results and have clients query that table (xpath can be expensive).
So, I was wondering if hstore will help me for fast access. Please let me know if anything is unclear.
