[arch-general] One more tiny patch that should bring a massive performance boost :D

Hello, During the recent libpng/libjpeg rebuilds, one thing that I noticed is that (big) Todo lists are really slow to load. Turns out that the current code is doing tons of simple queries (4 per package) which, although are quick to execute on the database server, take a considerable ammount of

[arch-general] [PATCH] Drastically reduce loading time of Todo lists

[arch-general] Two tiny patches for archweb_dev's ToDo lists

I tested both patches locally and they appear to work. They are really tiny and straightforward so they should be safe to apply to the live dev site with little/no further testing. (I'm not sure who is maintaining the web interface nowadays, so I'm sending the patches to this ML.)
