Faster, imho, involves tradeoffs at this point. My gut just on web apps is
that faster means "look hard at the SQL".  For example I learned TONS about
mysql scaling at Feedster that I think is applicable but it starts to get
specialized like memcache support, write versus read servers, etc.,
seriously playing with your table structure, etc.

Faster in what environment???  I'm happy to contribute ideas but given the
spectrum of sites WP runs on this question has major ramifications
