I have a suggestion. Replace the current sql based share driver with  
the one that does not use the bitwise operations. Release notes  
suggest that the share sql driver was to be a major improvement from  
the datatree based shares. But reading the comments the current share  
sql driver is a major bottleneck in large installations and in  
actually use it can be worse than the share datatree driver that it  
replaced.

Would it be possible for someone to write some sort of conversion  
script from the current share sql to the new one that does not use  
bitwise operations. I could then test this new code with data from our  
installation.
