i just read your instructions to see if this hack would work for my forum.
but this query is much slower then the original ones:

PHP Code:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS messages,
SUM(IF(dateline>$bbuserinfo[lastvisit] AND folderid=0,1,0)) AS newpm,
SUM(IF(messageread=0 AND folderid=0,1,0)) AS unreadpm
FROM privatemessage WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid] $ignoreusers 


you replaced three fast queries which reads the values from index by one slow query which crawls through the whole datafile. i did a quick test on my privatemessage table (1.2M messages), your query took 2.2 seconds to complete, the original ones took 0.2 seconds all together

but the rest of this cache looks good
