Long story short: it was slow on a free edition; an update to the developer
version
showed good results with TEXT and NTEXT (yes: usable respectively for
strings
and unicode strings), BUT... it seems that TEXT and NTEXT types for some (to
me)
unintelligible reason were deprecated in SQL Server 2005 and will be removed
in a future version.

I'll do some more research.
Very strange choice for a database, if you ask me. :-)
