Hi Mike,

If you recall, there was a problem with webwork being slow for big 
courses.  I had put in the innocuous part of the fix before, but that 
part doesn't actually do anything (which is why it is innocuous).  
Classes got busy before I could complete the fix.

I have the rest of the changes now, but they are only lightly tested.  
It affects the creation of mysql tables, so in principle, mistakes could 
cause all sorts of headaches.  Should I commit and let others test it, 
or wait until Tuesday?
