Well, anything based on XML data is going to be pretty slow. There's just no way to extra data from an XML field without lots of parsing. I'd tend to think it would be much faster to store the data conventially, and just generate XML in response to requests ... either inside or outside PostgreSQL. Of course, I'd need a lot more detail to make a serious assessment. Mind you, we'd be thrilled to have you implement a special XML index type. I don't think it's going to solve your problem, though. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
