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.

Nah, I'd just embezzle it and blow it all on fishing gear. Better to avoid the temptation.

But I thought good Whiskey was included in fishing gear...
Technically, lunchtime is at any moment. It's just a wave function.

Well, it can be but unlike beer it requires an additional hydration source and something sammich-like so you don't have to stop fishing. Whiskey's only part of your balanced breakfast not the whole thing.
