gollark: Have you read the potatOS privacy policy, by any chance?
gollark: This is ridiculous, *somehow* the slow bit appears to be it doing a query using a column *with an index* to get *one row* which executes in *less time than the thing measures* if I run it manually.
gollark: Also, and this is very æ, it's still actually quite slow somehow.
