+                #   2. Reinserting a lot of rows can confuse the table
+                #      statistics for postgres, causing it to not use the
+                #      correct indices for the query above, resulting in a full
+                #      table scan. This is incredibly slow for large tables and
+                #      can kill database performance. (This seems to mainly
+                #      happen for the last query where the clause is simply `? <
+                #      last_seen`)

+                # So instead we want to delete all but *one* of the duplicate
+                # rows. That is hard to do reliably, so we cheat and do a two
+                # step process:
+                #   1. Delete all rows with a last_seen strictly less than the
+                #      max last_seen. This hopefully results in deleting all but
+                #      one row the majority of the time, but there may be
+                #      duplicate last_seen
+                #   2. If multiple rows remain, we fall back to the naive method
+                #      and simply delete all rows and reinsert.
+                #

+made) but this also changes the pushkey and data columns to text.
+When selecting a bytea column into a text column, postgres inserts
+the hex encoded data, and there's no portable way of getting the
+UTF-8 bytes, so we have to do it in Python.

+Building full schema dumps
+==========================
+
+These schemas need to be made from a database that has had all background updates run.
+
+Postgres
+--------
+
+$ pg_dump --format=plain --schema-only --no-tablespaces --no-acl --no-owner $DATABASE_NAME| sed -e '/^--/d' -e 's/public\.//g' -e '/^SET /d' -e '/^SELECT /d' > full.sql.postgres
+
+SQLite
+------
+
+$ sqlite3 $DATABASE_FILE ".schema" > full.sql.sqlite
+
+After
+-----
+
+Delete the CREATE statements for "sqlite_stat1", "schema_version", "applied_schema_deltas", and "applied_module_schemas".

+        #
+        # The point of using a DictionaryCache is that it can cache a subset
+        # of the state events for a given state group (i.e. a subset of the keys for a
+        # given dict which is an entry in the cache for a given state group ID).
+        #
+        # However, this poses problems when performing complicated queries

+        # limit members to this subset of users", as DictionaryCache's API isn't
+        # rich enough to say "please cache any of these fields, apart from this subset".

+        # as without it the cache has no choice but to speculatively load all
+        # state events for the group, which negates the efficiency being sought.
+        #
+        # Rather than overcomplicating DictionaryCache's API, we instead split the
+        # state_group_cache into two halves - one for tracking non-member events,
+        # and the other for tracking member_events.  This means that lazy loading
+        # queries can be made in a cache-friendly manner by querying both caches
+        # separately and then merging the result.  So for the example above, you
+        # would query the members cache for a specific subset of state keys
+        # (which DictionaryCache will handle efficiently and fine) and the non-members
+        # cache for all state (which DictionaryCache will similarly handle fine)
+        # and then just merge the results together.

+""" This module is responsible for getting events from the DB for pagination
+and event streaming.
+
+The order it returns events in depend on whether we are streaming forwards or
+are paginating backwards. We do this because we want to handle out of order
+messages nicely, while still returning them in the correct order when we
+paginate bacwards.
+
+This is implemented by keeping two ordering columns: stream_ordering and
+topological_ordering. Stream ordering is basically insertion/received order
+(except for events from backfill requests). The topological_ordering is a
+weak ordering of events based on the pdu graph.
+
+This means that we have to have two different types of tokens, depending on
+what sort order was used:
+    - stream tokens are of the form: "s%d", which maps directly to the column
+    - topological tokems: "t%d-%d", where the integers map to the topological
+      and stream ordering columns respectively.
