Hey,
This is the (12 + 1)th [1] weekly update from revision scoring team that we have sent to this mailing list.
New developments:
- ORES review tool is deployed as a beta feature in Turkish Wikipedia. Now six Wikis have this tool. [2]
- CopyPatrol tool soon will show ORES scores if they pass a certain threshold. [3]
- We are talking about integration with Detox, feel free to chime in. [4]
Maintenance and robustness:
- Currently we are dealing with increasing memory pressure on scb nodes. Actions we did to reduce this pressure:
- We migrated most of RandomForrest models to GradientBoosting, which will reduce memory pressure greatly without affecting accuracy of models noticeably [5]
- It seems there is a memory leak issue with celery. We bypassed that by setting a periodic restart of workers. [6]
- We reduced maximum number of precaching requests in order to prevent spikes that might cause memory pressure on other services. [7]
- We reduced number of web processes to 2/3. It is still fine. [8]
- We finished up the refactor and it will soon goes to the production cluster. [9]
- Damaging and goodfaith models had issue in Dutch Wikipedia. Got fixed. [10]
- Our metrics collector now sends timed requests. We will have a dashboard in grafana for that soon. [11]
- There will be a link to "ORES review tool" page [12] in legend of RecentChanges and Watchlist. [13]
- When revscoring fails for any unknown reason, ORES return a proper message now. [14]
- We fixed a puppet issue that caused trouble while creating new web instances. Got fixed [15]
1. It's 13. We are not superstitious, just kidding ;)
Sincerely,
Amir from the Revision Scoring team
