Re:"I've isolated the bug to a database query" by matc on Thursday November 10, 2011 @09:48PM (#3223128)

Denormalization is a performance consideration, and now even happens transparently at the storage layer in some RDBMs. So restructuring a 'live' database should be done for semantic reasons: because the workflow changes; because the app needs to change.
