Hi Tom, many thanks for your answer, Il giorno ven, 30/11/2012 alle 10.51 -0500, Tom Lane ha scritto: > (1) time to fetch the wide geometry values from the table's TOAST table Yes.. this could be the point!!!!! In fact I do not face problems when a execute a select using similar tables (also larger than those I described in the previous e-mail) but containing POINTS instead of POLYGONS I suppose that for the points (that are short) postgresql do not use TOAST tables. On the contrary postgres use TOAST table with the polygons (that are long). Can you suggest a workaround to solve this problem? Should I ask to the PostGIS user mailing list?
