The problem is with both updates and selects.
For selects - to get all the information for the VDS we have multiple
joins. Adding another one will hurt performance even more.
For updates - we have vds_static thats hardly changed. vds_statistics that
changes all the time. vds_dynamic is not changed allot - but is updated all
the time because of the status. I think it's best to split it to the two
existing tables (BTW - relevant for VM as well)
