If you have payed attention (or tested #2709 and #2710), then you know that this takes a long time if there are a large number of users. Way to long to be at all reasonable.
This uses techniques like those used for assigning multiple sets to users, i.e., the
WeBWorK::DB::Schema::NewSQL::Std::insert_records
andWeBWorK::DB::Schema::NewSQL::Std::update_records
methods, to speed up assignment of achievements to users.This brings the assignment time for 5000 users down from more than 8 minutes, to less than 30 seconds.
