Just adding some few indexes to the database would help the load
enormously. I remember Ton Voon giving a speech at Nagios Konferenz
in germany last year, stating that analyzing the queries and then
creating the appropriate indexes boosted performance by as close
to 300000% (querytimes dropped from 146secs down to 0.2).

This is off the top of my head though, so take the numbers with a
grain of salt.
