So sorry for the cross-posting and for this shout for help that some can read as a forum shopping, but this is really annoying.

In short, we on all Wikisource wikis are unable to start working on new pages from digitized books (or for newly overwritten uploads) without poking the server N times in order to generate a single resized image.
Please fix it ASAP. Please see also #c18 on the mentioned bug.

I've emailed Robla now, but it's hard to make forecasts. Perhaps someone with noratelimit rights (sysop, crat or bot flag mostly) can fire up a bot to trigger thumbnail creation of all (new) Wikisource files? What are the most common required sizes? It looks hard to even work around this...

My understanding is that this is now resolved. There was a configuration issue to the squids so that they use the XFF rather than internal IP addresses.

Just to mention a possible workaround for IA books: it's possible to upload "on the fly" by javascript a high-resolution jpg image of the page, while editing a wikisource page; I used this trick when djvu had a too low resolution for details. The only data needed to upload images (a fast uploading, completely "wikimedia-server free") is IA id and a little bit of jQuery. As soon as the wikimedia image has been replaced by IA image, anything runs perfectly (zoom and horizontal-vertical view shift too).
