This reminds me of a talk about Evolution of Code at Facebook [1]. One of the first architectural restructurings (and still the major driving factor behind later changes) was the switch from sequential memcache_get to parallel memcache_multiget.

Oh, thanks for sharing that. This presentation is great and is food for a couple more ideas I think I might be able to pull off for Rails using multi fetching.

That same presentation walks through some OO code patterns they use; that's far from "a giant script".
