Query optimization request

[jscieza]

Hi,

My programmer gave me the following query to get the latest 10 threads created on my forum to be listed in the sidebar of my forumhome (I'm using vB 3.8.x). Issue here is that the query is being listed as slow query (and a very slow one). Please take a look:

    # Query_time: 38  Lock_time: 1        Rows_sent: 10  Rows_examined: 82411
    SELECT thread.threadid, thread.title, thread.postuserid,     thread.postusername, thread.dateline, thread.replycount
                            FROM vb_thread AS thread
                            LEFT JOIN vb_deletionlog AS deletionlog ON     (deletionlog.primaryid = thread.threadid AND type = 'thread')
                            WHERE open <> 10
                                    AND thread.visible = 1
                                    AND deletionlog.primaryid IS NULL
                                    AND forumid NOT IN     (a list of 15 forumids goes here)
                            ORDER BY thread.dateline DESC
                            LIMIT 10;

How I can optimize that query?

Thank you,
Jonathan
