Primitives probably will always be faster... Even if ODE in fact had
trimesh-trimesh collider (currently it has none, but there's one in
"pending" state). In any case, raw trimesh-trimesh collision is a very hard
subject, and certainly isn't the fastest one (or the most accurate).

In your case, a chair can simply be a box. Or two boxes - the one that
bounds chair legs, and the other one that bounds backrest. Simple and fast.
