I've found out that ORDER BY RAND() in MySQL is very slow. I found out the hard way and it wasn't a problem until I had a LOT of rows to sort through. Can anyone suggest any alternatives? Is there a faster implementation I can use? For now, I just removed the statement.
I thought about code randomizing but then I'd have to pull more results (currently only pulling 7 results). It isn't ideal and I don't think it would actually have random results, just pull the same set of results over and over again.
ideas?
