How different (and better) is it from wildspeed?
The general advantage is possibility of usage wildcard search and trigram similarity search using the same index.
I expect that GIN trigram index is slightly less space demanding, but slightly slower on search than wildspeed. Also, I expect GiST trigram index to be slower on search, but faster on updates. While I didn't check these assumptions in details.
I've lack of test datasets for sufficient testing, and I would like to ask community to help me with it. Because testing on dictionaries is good, but obviously not enough.
