So to use just one of the recount functions on a forum with a half million topics, you currently pull an array of the topic id’s several megabytes in size into ram, then proceed to use 500,000 x 3 = 1.5 MILLION QUERIES to update the meta.

that’s me! Thanks _ck_.

Is this the same issue that’s causing the paging to be wrong? The user has just reported:

It commonly happens with the 41st post on a thread, where you if you click on “latest post” link you get sent to the 40th post at the bottom of page 1, with no link to page 2 (note in the example I sent you “latest post” sent you to the bottom of page 3).
