Yeah, just thinking about things logically here, the more they can automate expensive queries on the back end on a more periodic basis and then cache the results regardless of what's happening with page views on the front end, the better things should be. It's a lot cheaper for a database to serve cached results in lookups. I'm not a database guy and not really qualified to help fix any of these issues, but I'm just drawing from what I remember from my databases course in college.
