I've completed a plugin that converts replaces the save and load
plugins into wrapper functions to a mysql database.

There are some problems:
  Nothing in boltwire is designed to use mysql strengths, so the speed
increase isnt that big on normal pages. My load problem where I was
sucking page variables from 200+ pages seems cured, however.

  The installation is annoying. You have to define login-information
in index.php, and the first time, you have to run a certain function
before loading boltwire, or boltwire segfaults. At least, you did. I
may have fixed that by removing BOLTfolders...

  Hmm. Currently upgrade functionality is broken, since the convert
function does not overwrite pages. Easy to fix.

I think a lot of the per page load time is caused by the "make sure
the table has been created" function. We may want to move that to the
convert-function and only ever call it once. Alternatively, we can put
in a real test (avoid relying on errors, they tend to be slow) and
then call the convert function if the table is created. Yes. Thats a
good idea. May simplify a lot.

Anyway. I'm going to not work on this anymore today, load up the
plugin tomorrow and see what happens.

Based on my results so far, I think I'm going to stick to my "normal"
mysql plugin for database usage and keep my pages in boltwire format.
