VB_Postparsed question

[Amenadiel]

How does VB engine handle the table vb_postparsed?

I'd like to experiment with Mysql 5.1 partitioning features, but I need to know if the table is checked on a per post basis or is it queried for the whole thread with a join.

Either.

But i don't think you want to partion this table. If it gets too large lower the number of days posts stay in cache in your vBulletin Options.

I'm not concerned about size, it's just that partitioning would allow concurrent insertions and most likely a faster throughput.

I thought I could move it to memory engine, but that one doesn't support text columns.
