the way the Everything node cache works, that process tells MySQL to update every single field of your node (include rewriting the contents of your home node, your scratch pad, and all of your user settings).
Eh... why?

The way I see it, you should be the only user that ever gets to update your entire own user node. A vote for a post of yours should only update that field, while your own update of your user data should update anything but that field, as you can't vote for yourself. I have no access to the source, I can only assume this is an SQL query definition thing, in which case it should be doable...

Either that, or put a lock on your user record, and the other process will have to wait until the other one has finished, before reading as well as writing this record.
