 * If I activate Reed Write 1.4.0 and WordPress SEO 1.0.3 (the one by Yoast), the
   sitemap_index.xml generated by the SEO plugin become a 404.
 * I have a others plugins, but just this is having this kind of problem.

 * I can confirm that this problem exists, as I was able to reproduce it based on
   the above post.

 * Three people have taken the time to identify this issue is happening, and I am
   wondering if anything is being done about it, or has been done about it? It’s
   been two months since it was first pointed out, and the most recent case was 
   15 hours ago… so I assume the issue is still there?
 * Thank you…

 * Does anyone have a site with both active where i could see the erroneous output?

 * Found the issue, reed-write does a `flush_rewrite_rules()` on each page load,
   which is both a very heavy call and makes it impossible for plugins like mine
   to work in a proper way, to the author of reed-write will have to fix that.

 * Thanks Joost. I appreciate you taking a look into this. Such service!!
 * Well…. It sounds to me like Read Write won’t be reading and writing on my site
   then. “Pass”.
 * Hopefully the author resolves it, even if just to improve the efficiency of his/
   her on plug-in.
 * Cheers,
 * Jonathan

 * Apologies folks. I removed the `flush_rewrite_rules()` issue in 1.5.0.
