When were they re-enabled for en.wiki? Have they been fixed to generate more meaningful data and minimize server load? They don't appear to tick for each page reload so something is different.
They're not re-enabled, I just forgot to disable the counter _display_ code for en.wiki when I installed a bug fix in the skin code.
Speaking of this, I don't see why they can't be reenabled. However, instead of doing it in realtime (would which kill your performance), why not do it at night? Parse through the Apache log, compile a list of how much each article counter needs to be incremented, connect to MySQL... and do it. :)
