Sure. The main db-contest site of the magazine is [1], but it's all
german. You'lll find an english translation of the original article,
describing the problem to solve in [2].
The contest entries are downloadable on [3]. Mine is the 'bluegap' one.
If you want to hack together a high-performance solution based on
PostgreSQL I'd start with Alvar C.H. Freude's disqualified entry.
Happy hacking
Markus
