> Now that I know what's causing the slow queries, what can I do to fix it?

The only thing I can suggest is breaking up the query into two parts -
the first part to retrieve just the product codes and salesrank, and
sort and limit that.. save in a temp table or use application code to
retrieve and print the rest of the product info.  Sorting 300,000+
records in that huge result set is going to take some time (although
it shouldn't take 10 minutes).
