Category: None Group: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: André Malafaya Baptista (malafaya) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: -nobacklink option removed? Initial Comment: I would like to know if the option -nobacklink has been removed from interwiki.py. I always used this option to reduce processing times and also CPU consumption (while displaying the backlink warnings, the CPU reaches 100% for some seconds, freezing other processes almost completely). Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2007-09-06 12:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1037345 Originator: YES Thanks for the info, wikipedian. I just had noticed the parameter missing from the help text but I hadn't noticed it had been moved to user-config.py. That surely helps. Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Herding (wikipedian) Date: 2007-09-06 00:58 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=880694 Originator: NO Hi André, first of all, I have sped up the backlink processing code. It is still slow, but not as slow as it used to be. Here is my commit message from 2007-08-13: ---- By making use of dictionaries and sets, decreased complexity from O(n^3) to O(n^2). For example, the backlinks report for python interwiki.py -lang:de Indien -localonly is now generated in 26 seconds, instead of the 190 seconds that were needed before. ---- Also, I thought that this is something you don't want to change each time you run the bot. Either you always want them, or you never do (IMHO). Thus, a command-line parameter just wasn't the right thing, especially because interwiki.py has way too many of them, which makes it hard to learn. Instead, you can now add this in your user-config.py: interwiki_backlink = False Is that OK for you? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603139&aid=178903…
