The value of database indexing
Sheesh. I just sped up the TechWatching.com script that writes the main page by an order of magnitude just by looking at my queries and re-jiggering related table indexes. I am a total amateur and have the greatest of respect for those who’ve made databasing and computer science their career.
Now onto sorting out character encoding and why Magpierss doesn’t seem to like CDATA blocks — arghh. BTW - the move I wrote about to SimplePie? Hasn’t quite worked out. For whatever reason, SimplePie disregards a lot of blog posts in feeds that Magpie happily picks up. So I’m back to Magpie and its related problems.
