I think that's you could use the counter_cache feature:
class AddReplyCount < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
add_column :topics, :replies_count, :integer, :default => 0
Project.reset_column_information
Topic.find(:all).each do |t|
t.update_attribute(:replies_count, t.replies.length)
end
end
def self.down
remove_column :topics, :replies_count
end
end
class Topic < AR
has_many :replies, :order => 'replies_count ASC'
...
end
class Reply < AR
belongs_to :topic, :counter_cache => true
...
end
