-------------------------------------
Ordering is not free; each field to order by is an operation the database must
perform. If a model has a default ordering (:attr:`Meta.ordering
<django.db.models.Options.ordering>`) and you don't need it, remove
it on a ``QuerySet`` by calling
:meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.order_by()` with no parameters.
Adding an index to your database may help to improve ordering performance.
