... and the output produced by

explain analyse <insert your query>

Explain analyze of my query
explain analyze select * from vehicle_stindex where ndpoint_overlap('(116.4,39.3,2008/02/11 11:11:11),(117.8,39.98,2008/02/13 11:11:11)',stpoint);
                                                                    QUERY PLAN                                                                   
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on vehicle_stindex  (cost=10000000000.00..10000050870.86 rows=698823 width=66) (actual time=3285.106..3285.106 rows=0 loops=1)
   Filter: ndpoint_overlap('(116.400000,39.300000,2008-02-11 11:11:11+05:30),(117.800000,39.980000,2008-02-13 11:11:11+05:30)'::ndpoint, stpoint)
 Total runtime: 3285.153 ms

Table Defination

Table "public.vehicle_stindex"
 Column  |  Type   | Modifiers
---------+---------+-----------
 regno   | text    |
 stpoint | ndpoint |
Indexes:
    "stindex" gist (stpoint)

It has 2099192 tuples.


Index defination
create index stindex on vehicle_stindex using gist(stpoint).


I have defined a datatype called ndpoint. It works same as contrib/cube code (cube datatype).
Query is working fine. I mean no error from query or my datatype. All are giving right result.
    If anything more to mention, then tell me
