fel64 is right. So I made a change.

<?php

// from wp_trim_excerpt() in WordPress 2.3.1 formatting.php, just removed few lines

function make_excerpt($text) { // Fakes an excerpt if needed

$text = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $text);

$text = strip_tags($text);

$excerpt_length = 55;

$words = explode(' ', $text, $excerpt_length + 1);

if (count($words) > $excerpt_length) {

array_pop($words);

array_push($words, '[...]');

$text = implode(' ', $words);

}

return $text;

}



if ( $topics ) :

$last_post_ids = array();

foreach ( $topics as $topic )

$last_post_ids[] = $topic->topic_last_post_id;

global $bbdb;

$post_ids = $bbdb->get_col( "SELECT post_id, post_text FROM $bbdb->posts WHERE post_id IN (" . implode(',', $last_post_ids) . ")");

$post_texts = $bbdb->get_col( null, 1 );

$post_excerpts = array();

foreach($post_ids as $idx => $post_id)

$post_excerpts[$post_id] = make_excerpt( $post_texts[$idx] );

endif;

?>

<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a>

<?php echo $post_excerpts[$topic->topic_last_post_id]; ?>

</td>

<td class="num"><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>

<td class="num"><small><?php topic_time(); ?></small></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; endif; // $topics ?>

On my test forum, 15 posts, without excerpts takes .119 sec, with excerpts takes .127 sec. Previous code takes .140 sec.
