Mark,
He did include it in an earlier email
wastac=> explain analyze select count(*) from wastac.t_tile_geometry where
ST_Intersects(border, ST_GeographyFromText('SRID=4326;POLYGON((116.751709

That does look like a pretty huge bounding polygon, but the geography we
agree should still be using the spatial index, so probably making the index
cost higher than it should
Nick,
Can you just for contrast, try to force it to use the index by doing
set enable_seqscan = off;
explain analyze select count(*) from wastac.t_tile_geometry where
ST_Intersects(border, ST_GeographyFromText('SRID=4326;POLYGON((116.751709

That should force it to use the index unless it can't for some other reason.

Okay - so can we see the explain analyze output for your last query for the
geography intersecting geography case for comparison?
