You might be interested in a recent set of suggestions here. Briefly, the New Notes section is growing too big, and should either be an optional part of the Newest Nodes page, or there should be an sql sub-select to remove New Notes that are redundent (parent-nodes are brand new and therefore appear previously in the Newest Nodes).

I certainly understand if vroom simply doesn't have a spare round tuit; I would lend one of my own if I wasn't overdrawn already.
