in looking over the section of the users manual on indices, i see that
R-Tree indices are recommended for <<, but this advice is clearly tied to
the geometric interpretation of << ("to the left of") rather than the
network interpretation ("is contained in").
what type of index is recommended when the dominant lookup on a field is
'<networkaddress>' << ipblock
where the ipblock column is of type cidr?
thanks,
richard
