Hi,
Could someone explain what is happening when large uploads have long breaks? My long term HABS upload (250,000 files) has had notable pauses, mostly around an hour, though this morning has seen a 4 hour break in uploading. I had thought that the upload has completed, but as soon as I started another tranche, it restarted (possibly a coincidence, though maybe it unlocked the scheduling for the job in some way).
It would be nice to know, as it might come up during the sessions at Wikimania and we would not want users to assume an upload had broken if all they were seeing was a scheduling "pause".

This appears to be a longer running issue, raised a bug request at: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68506

Has anyone been successfully using GWT for uploads in the last few days? I believe this bug effectively makes it offline.

Well that's particularly unfortunate timing as I understand that the GWT is going to be a feature item in the next edition of the *Wikipedia Signpost, *which will be published very soon...
