Looks like they have already fixed that ticket in Changeset 1644.

I already had the “$bb->load_options = true;” part, but I am setting up a forum with 17 forums as categories and 176 forums total. There are currently no topics, but here are the page load stats from the front page:

0.391 – 405 queries

For a single forum page:

0.148 – 359 queries

After patching bb-includes/functions.php I get this for the front page:

0.294 – 55 queries

And for a single forum page:

0.095 – 9 queries

Thanks a million _ck_.
