While shutting down terminal windows to the SN servers this morning, one of them had the create table syntax for the comments table still on screen. I gave it a read through just because it was there and noticed that there wasn't an index for the opid (top level comment id for speeding up entire thread pulling) column. So I got some before numbers, added one, and ran some After tests. Heavily commented stories show a 50-150% pages-per-second speed increase in threaded views. Low hanging fruit FTW.

    First time I've taken any since my 20s. They're just as annoying now as then. And the dipshit PA felt the need to prescribe me not one but two bloody decongestants after I told him the infection had my sinuses the clearest they had been in decades.

    Sinuses? Try scuba diving. They gave me hell through my teens. Guess I was 20, almost 21 when I took my diving lessons. We got out of the kiddy pool, and went on our first real dive, diddling around at around fifty feet. My ears popped, and I started running at the nose, head felt weird, and I headed to the surface. I was a god-awful mess for a couple hours, but I've never had sinus problems like I did in my teens. I suppose if I had ever described the experience to a nose-throat-and-ear specialist, he could have explained it. All I know is, life changed when I took up diving.
