Might I recommend the FCC database of transmitters. Its publicly
available via anonymous FTP, medium largish with tables running 100k ->
1m+ records, and demonstrates many interesting test cases. For example,
lat/lon spatial queries (RTree vs. GIST) can be tested with a decent
volume. Also it demonstrates a good example of the use of schemas.
Email me if you want info.

Format is pipe delimited (non quoted), and data turnover is < 1% a week.
