Subject: Offload inbox updates to a queue handler to speed up posting online
X-Git-Url: https://git.mxchange.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e26a843caf9f6bb0d11a7128884db235ededcce0;p=quix0rs-gnu-social.git

Offload inbox updates to a queue handler to speed up posting online

Moved much of the writing that happens when posting a notice to a new
queuehandler, distribqueuehandler. This updates tags, groups, replies
and inboxes at queue time (or at Web time, if queues are disabled).

To make this work well, I had to break up the monolithic
Notice::blowCaches() and make cache blowing happen closer to where
data is updated.

Squashed commit of the following:
