It's completely stupid that I can't query and get an accurate total of
records in a table in under a second.
If it's so important to you, why not maintain your OWN count. Cache the
figure somewhere, or update a figure when you insert a record.
A deviation of 40-50% is SIGNIFICANT!
You might as well just use RAND() at that point.
