No, there is really no good way to do the same work of qgroup.

There are incoming improvements for qgroup, especially solves the
performance for qgroup + balance, the biggest performance pitfall.
The target is v5.1 or v5.2.

And there is planned enhancement to imoprove the backref walk code, to
improve the overall performance of qgroup.

So feel free to try out qgroup in v5.2.

Thanks,
