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.

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.

Allergies have kept mine half plugged since my late teens. The sinus infection had them almost entirely clear. Weirdness doth abound in my general vicinity.
