I have to say this is a very inefficient way of rewriting the URLs and I would strongly advise anyone against installing this modification. Not because it's similar to mine, as I welcome the comeptition and commend the authors for releasing their work for free, but because of the un-necessary queries run here there and everywhere.

There is absolutely no need to run a query to get the forum titles for example, that information is in the forumcache, and also the forumtitle is available in other variables depending on the page you are on. Most of all you have un-necessary regex's being run on pages they don't need to be run on. It's far more efficient to redirect old URLs to their new equivalent using .htaccess, than to to try and rewrite every rule everywhere or at least limit the regex's on pages they only need to be on.

As I said before, unless this modification's internal struture changes drastically, anyone using a large board will be using a completely un-necessary amount of resources to run it.
