PLD_RSS_FEED_SEQ

[guaranis]

What is the use of this table?
The field ID is already in auto_increment.
When you insert a new feed, the id is already going to be auto-incremented without the need of this extra table.
Is there another use?

We use this also phpLD for tables and links. I believe it is a faster way to get the total count. There may be some other reasons for its use also.

Ok, this could be done on the table PLD_RSS_FEED directly by the
SHOW TABLE STATUS

You can find the information about the number of rows.
This will avoid 4 extra tables.

I know there was a pretty good reason, but it escapes me right now.
I'll try to find out.

Hi guaranis, all _SEQ tables are also used for cross-database sequencing control (used for auto-increment primary key). Some databases do not have sequencing control built in, so this is needed.
