Interesting. I have to wonder whether this means
caching is for some
reason not working at all... It seems to be disabled and/or broken at
the moment, unless someone sneaked in and fixed the other-languages bug
while I wasn't looking.
It works, otherwise we wouldn't have seen the language-link bug.
Well, I know it used to work on the live server (and the bug was visible
there) and it works now on my test machine (and the bug is visible
here), but right now I go to the live server and I *don't* see the
language bug. Which means either Jimbo left it disabled, or something
mysterious crept into the code that I don't know about.
Oh hey, I just noticed another bug! Wikilinks in the article change
style (lose underline) after an other-language link has been parsed.
That's probably my fault when I switched things over to the style-sheet
code, I'll fix it.
I'm not the
least surprised that caching doesn't help much. With large datasets like
Wikipedia the bottlenecks are usually the database or programming that
doesn't keep an eye on the big O time/space complexity of its behavior.
Very true. Which is why I don't think removeHTMLtags() is such a big
barrier that we have to do it only on article save. :)
