 * Has anyone tried this on WP3.5 yet? I don’t want to blow up my system…
 * Here’s our situation, and why this (if it works) is invaluable. We’re running
   a multisite installation with over 2000 individuals’ “ePortfolios” so far — and
   growing.
 * One of our Instructional Designers is tasked with managing the students who are
   using the system, and so she needs to be able to go into every single blog and
   review or correct it. But once she had rights on that many blogs, she couldn’t
   log in because the server timed out retrieving her profile — many thousands of
   lines in the usermeta table. Not only would her request time out, but the whole
   server was brought to its knees.
 * So clearly she needs to be a superadmin, and in fact once I wiped those thousands
   of lines from the database, she was able to log in immediately.
 * But just as clearly we don’t want her installing or removing plugins.

 * At this point, I don’t think the plugin does work with 3.5 (everything looks 
   like its working, but the capabilities I tried to remove during testing didn’t
   actually get taken away like they should have).
 * That said, I’m not sure this plugin is what you want. Instead, you’ll probably
   need either a plugin, or some custom code that skips retrieving the users’ list
   of “My Sites”
 * Out of curiosity, how many sites is this person in charge of?

 * Hey Curtiss,
 * Great plugin, we are using it on 3.5.1, don’t see any problems here, but when
   can we expect an official update?
