Oh, it just occured to me: the subquery is using a different index than
the outer loop, so we can forget about caching. Considering that the
outer loop uses an index 10x bigger than the subquery, and that means
~50million entries, and the typical situation where this would be used
mostly selects 1000 rows indeed, the LIMIT on DELETE for this case would
mean for sure ~ 50% speedup.
