FWIW, my preliminary testing shows no performance increase for adding
LIMIT 1 to the following construct:

        [ SELECT | UPDATE ]
        WHERE Table.UniqueID = <N>

In fact, there seems to be a slight performance edge to NOT appending
LIMIT 1 to the statement.

Subject: Performance: LIMIT 1 with UPDATE

Does using LIMIT 1 with UPDATE provide a performance improvement when
the WHERE condition is on a unique index or primary key?
