I try to solve performance problems with czech tsearch. I checked serialization and deserialization, but this decrease load time only to 100ms (from 500) that is too much for us. After some gaming with mmap I thinking so there some chance to preallocate mmap memory, and then use a special memory context based on mmap instead of malloc. Teoretically I can copy aset interface - this module probably never be in core (this problem is probably local - only Czech), but it isn't nice. So I asking.
