Hi,
this is a postgis function. Postgis is an independent project
and you might want to ask there:
http://www.postgis.org/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
or
http://www.faunalia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gfoss
(italian).
Anyway, as long as you just compute the difference between
2 given shapes, no index can help you. Indices speed up
searches...
Bye,
Chris.
