It sounds to me a lot like you may be in need of full-text-index code --- see contrib/tsearch2. If you were not trying to roll-your-own text searcher, please give more details. I can hardly imagine a situation in which it is useful to make a btree index on 100KB values. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
