Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Replying to [comment:1 hakre]:
 > Postname alone does not work at all. At I least with my experiences I
 would strongly discourage it. The %category% in front doesn't make it much
 better.

 +1 to that. These two are simply the worst service you could possibly do
 to your site. The only thing you'll get are bugs are performance problems.

 And yet, an obscene amount of irresistibly incompetent SEO "experts"
 consistently praise those two.

 Maybe we should submit a patch that actually tells this to end-users. As
 right there, in large, bold type, at the beginning of the settings /
 permalinks screen. I'm sick of fixing sites that use these broken
 structures.
