Comment (by wonderboymusic):

 I just did this (get all comments for post but just id=>parent / cache it)
 for my implementation of threaded replies in bbPress - once you do that,
 Walker can figure out hierarchy, but you need to do a Walker before you
 query paged comments so you can do an IN query for the cpage instead of
 calling get_comment( ) for every item in the comment loop

 I'll attach code if what I did is portable

 Doing the walker for the page will also get you a proper pagination
 matrix, and allow you to display 1-{total number of comments} vs 1-{total
 number of top level comments per page}
