Sorry, I don't know what that is for.  It looked really strange to me
as well.  Dan said he pulled it straight from CF's debugging stuff.

Anyway, I've added indexes and the query runs in 8.5 seconds which is
half of what it was.  The front page comes up a lot quicker now.

Does the Oracle box really only have 64MB of RAM?!!  That's not
enough.  Oracle's minimum requirement is 128MB or 256MB.  I couldn't
increase buffer cache by that much.  I think the buffer cache hit
ratio is still around 30% which is way too low.  It should be up in
the 80-90% range.
