I'd say that any speedup, no matter how small is worthwhile when you consider
that the speed of a reschedule, affects the speed at which we update the UI
to reflect scheduling changes. If I hit 'R' to toggle a recording in the EPG
it's not until the reschedule is complete that I'll know if that showing will
be recorded or whether it will conflict. This can be frustratingly slow even
with the scheduler in trunk.
The 27% improvement is impressive though and looking at the patch, you are
probably right in saying that a 3% improvement doesn't make it worthwhile.
This might be the time to start thinking about the change which could bring
significant speed improvements to scheduling - subqueries. That means
dropping support for MySQL 3.3 and moving to MySQL 4.1.
