"Interesting, but where's the hint as to how to avoid/mitigate the problem?"...
In case you're interested, a simplified explanation of problem is invoices that get queries raised.

Yeaup.... that's where I first ran into similar problems... millions of invoices...

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
