regards, tom laneSo it's basically impossible to use FTS/GIN with sorting on large datasets?Are there any plans to improve this situation?Thanks.

http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/talks/Next%20generation%20of%20GIN.pdf
This indicates some work is being done in this area.
Oleg, if you're listening, do you guys have any exiting news regarding this?
