That would be me. my webmail is stupid and didnt send it to the list, my
bad. plus i forgot to configure it to show who I am. But yes, i follow
lj-dev, and fb quite closely and Im constantly impressed by the things you
guys pull off. like memcache, which had me droooling. I just figured since
you help run (probably) one of the biggest mysql/apache clusters/websites in
the internet, with some of the biggest traffic and DB loads you would have a
couple of things to say on the subject. nice to see you here

Somebody sent me an anonymous (no name, no from
address) e-mail in
response to a mail I sent to this list. Since I don't know
who the
sender is, I guess I'll have to reply through the list. Please let me
know if this is not the correct way of doing it.
I'd be very grateful if the sender of the mail showed themselves.

Why does it take a Timwi from LJ to do database optimisations? :-)
Anyway - yeah, I was going to have some looks at it later on. I'm
waiting for my first patch to go through first though -- I wouldn't like
to spend time on it if it's not going to be used anyway.
I noticed that pages with a lot of links (like the "List of XYZ
topics"
pages) take a long time to edit. I'm imagining it updates some table for
all those links even if just one of the links was changed, or something.
Is that the case? Perhaps if someone could point me at a particular file
and line where this is happening? Thanks in advance! :)
Greetings,
Timwi
