One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.
