Tables a and b are identical and contain 1000 rows, and a column of type BOX.
select * from a cross join b where (a.b && b.b) --- 0.28 s
Here 1000000 box overlap (operator &&) tests are completed in 0.28s. The test data set is generated so that the result set contains only 1000 rows.
create index a_b on a using gist(b);
create index b_b on a using gist(b);
select * from a cross join b where (a.b && b.b) --- 0.01 s
Here the index is used to optimize the cross join, and speed is ridiculous.
