Hi!
Our most recent sprint was our final sprint dedicated to the "Mobile on MVC
Release"; this meant we focused on improving visibility into mobile
initiatives, including the mobile site, support for mobile applications,
and Wikipedia Zero and fixing some segfaults in the filter component of
webstatscollector.
We have some mobile feature cards that will hangover to the next sprint but
the sprint ending April 3th was the last sprint that was part of the Mobile
on MVC Release. The coming sprint is the first sprint that is part of the
new release titled "Self-Serve Observational Analytics". This means that we
will schedule more feature cards that will enable data analysts, product
managers and other data consumers to work with the analytic toolset
themselves.
Apologies for cross-posting; ideally you should receive this on the
Analytics Mailinglist so we can have one focal point for conversation. If
you are not on the Analytics list then please subscribe at

Hey folks,
I was running a script to update the revert tables on db1047 with stat1 two
days ago that had some bad disk access patterns. (FYI, don't use python
shelve as an on-disk cache of a dict().) As soon as I saw the load come
up, I killed the script. For any difficulty that occurred in the meantime,
I'm very sorry. I've since re-written things to behave much better.
I currently have two processes running on the machine:
- sessions.py - Updating session table on db1047. Useful for measuring
editor labor hours.
- reverts.py - Updating revert tables on db1047. Fixed to not need a
disk cache.
Both of these processes are nice'd, so they should wait in line for CPU
access behind any non-nice'd processes you have running. If the processes
cause any trouble, please feel free to kill them or let me know and I'll
kill them.
For Science,
-Aaron
