I'm new to the list and wanted to introduce myself.  I have just
completed a new data structure definition for our FiveStat MUD
complete with UML repository and the best abstraction of that to an
object influenced relational DB design.

What I have NO experience with is BTree indices and Bespoke ?

I already have a graphical character designer, graphical character
dresser, and have built the full vocabulary/grammar editor and a
visual gamemaster tool.

I'm a SQL DBA and a game publisher in real life, but it sounds to me
like I'm going to really be regretting things if I don't get a
hardcore MUSH hacker to work with me on this project.

I've noticed that the same issues mentioned are certainly
problems.... the movement query is relatively slow... and I'm hosting
dedicated at a professional colo facility with a replicated dual SQL
server and separate load balanced web servers.

My question is... how do I go about locating someone that would be
willing to comb through what I've done already and provide
optimization help?

Thanks for any advice.
