Current Status of SDMB Upgrade

I had to hack the forum display code so it didn’t bog itself down trying to determine how many threads match your chosen display option range (1 days, 2 days, etc.). So yes, I have it limited to 200 threads. 200 is an arbitrary number I just picked, it could be higher. Yesterday I tried a number of ways to optimize the hack to return some of the functionality you’ve noted is missing but even the optimized code brought the server to a standstill eventually. It’s going to require more work than just the simple things I was doing to get that piece of code performing adequately so unfortunately a long term fix is deferred until I can get the bulk of the other issues addressed.
