Description

Currently the FlatPage model doesn't have an index on 'url', but always uses 'url' for the lookup in contrib.flatpages.views:

f = get_object_or_404(FlatPage, url__exact=url, sites__id__exact=settings.SITE_ID)

I'm not sure how this could hurt in any case since if you only had a few flatpages your index would be small and if you had many it would be crucial.

Well spotted Jesse! Although, looking at that query - shouldn't the index be on (url, sites_id)?

I didn't know you could specify composite keys with django and I don't know enough about how MySQL/Postgre optimize index usage to comment. Thanks for the patch!
