G'day all, I am quite interested in this feature (from RFC 48), but not quite sure how it is intended to work - I vaguely interpreted that I could add an arrowhead to a line using it, but do I need to create a second layer (with the GEOTRANSFORM END) parameter to place a symbol, or can it

Hi Sam, You have no mentioned whether or not you created spatial indices on your geometries. Such indexes won't help much when plotting the entire dataset, but will dramatically improve plotting (retrieving) subsets of it. I suggest you use the PostGIS function ST_SimplifyPreserveTopology() to
