River,

Good news, does it mean we might have s1 and s3 separated within around a month and it is a good time to adopt scripts  and tools for this change?

i usually try to avoid that when splitting a database, since it means the
innodb data file is much larger than it needs to be (yarrow has both s1 and s3,
but the new server will only have s1).  it's also a good opportunity to
defragment/reindex the tables, which helps performance a bit.

yes, this would be nice, if Wikimedia would warn us before deleting the
binlogs.
