if (!headers_sent()) {
session_start();

// Prevent session fixation by only allowing sessions that have been sent by the server.
// Any session that does not contain our unique token will be regarded ...

I don't know if they started recently. I only noticed them when I went to investigate the slow down. I can look back at earlier logs. I haven't been plugged into the blog much since before xmas.

I'll check.

As far as plugins, no nothing new, and as far as I can tell no changes on the server. We ...

Here is what the apache logs say:

Hi Garvin,

Thanks for the quick reply.

It certainly pulls distinct results and is much cleaner than my messy query, but it doesn't pull the most recent results.

I'm about to take on transferring years worth of announcements and posts from a phpWebSite installation into serendipity. I wondered if anyone has attempted this or if the developers might have some tips that I could use.
