the gzip inside the mysql is a problem .. you cant regexp inside the gzip-mysql-fields.
If the mysql get the data from the master/slaves from the wiki , why must the data stored in the same content ? why cant the last version be uncompressed ?
Is the problem cpu ? disk-space ? mysql can do this ? no one mod the server to behave in that way ?
Wasent the idee of the server to give developers on the server acces to a live uncompressed version on the live- wiki ?
I am a gynaecologist not a mysql/php/what-ever-guru .. but perhaps my question can help to find answers to problems.
But the first step of solving a problem is allready been done .. we talk together ,, me exchange informations ..
