parentFix port_db on empty db (#9930) (diff)
downloadsynapse-2b2985b5cfc4267dfb0f6b900e1a0f69f3f2cdc5.tar.xz
Improve performance of backfilling in large rooms. (#9935)
We were pulling the full auth chain for the room out of the DB each time
we backfilled, which can be *huge* for large rooms and is totally
unnecessary.
