Hello,
Anyone has experience in importing enwiki database dump at http://download.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html into a real MySQL server?
1. It seems pages-meta-history has the max. size in term of download, how much storage space does it take when imported into a table? (including index) 2. What are the total storage needed for importing the whole enwiki? 3. Do you experience performance problem when querying the database, seems I think most table if over 10GB size? Any suggestion?
I need this imformation as I require to prepare budget plan to buy a proper server for doing the job.
Thank you.
Ryan
