Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: xqt (xqt) Summary: Do not use preloading in featured.py

Initial Comment: Using the 'pagegenerators', data transfer is not compressed. That data will be several megabytes. That transfer is very time consuming.

Therefore, I think a good idea to remove that line.

Thank you consider.

Message: Maybe the header is wrong. I found 'Accept-encoding' as header parameter but at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Client_Code header is described as 'Accept-Encoding' (capital Encoding)

Message: This has nothing to do with preloading generator. http requests are done by Site.PostData() or Site.getUrl() with gzip compression enabled by default.

Message: I also do not consume more time is good.

gzip compression will compress to about one-third of the text data. Therefore, transfer time will be one-third. Is roughly.

However, data transfer has not been compressed in the generator. This proposal is one way to solve this problem.

Message: It is less time consuming than loading e.g. 60 times each page separately. What is the intention of this request?
