Answer 1

You could speed this up a little bit by using an IN-list instead of ORs, but still over 5 secs:

SELECT thumbnail_link, description, link, embed_html, title, created_time, owner, vid FROM video WHERE owner in (477934732233267, 350544878418504, 534680473216081, 539004829516696, 663513950371958, 426622064081752, 289025427915372, 382955545140493) ORDER BY created_time DESC LIMIT 20

I suspected the sort to be time-consuming, but removing the ORDER BY doesn't have a big impact. So, I think you'll have to live with the response times.
