Hello,
So recently I've been trying to find a method where I could test database queries on production data. I originally thought Tool Labs might help, but I found out due to a bug in MySQL you can't perform EXPLAIN queries in the database replicas. And naturally I don't have access to the actual production cluster because I'm not on ops.
My last method to try is going to be downloading the enwiki database dump and setting up my own replica. However, this involves hard drive space that I don't have.
Basically I want to know if anybody is aware of any other method through which I can test queries? Thanks in advance.
