1) using a more descriptive subject, ie "fast list search using in?"
    will bring more responses and probably responses from people
    who really know what they are talking about.

2) giving a description of what it is you want to accomplish will
    often give these people enough information to suggest a totally
    different way to do what you want to do (and do it much faster)
