Amir shows that the enwiki-pagelinks table has surpassed the size of the revisions table. -
Jaime shows that (post-MCR compression) the revision tables have gotten considerably smaller, and that on Commons the image/oldimage tables are even bigger than pagelinks and pose a bigger operational risk (since link data can be regenerated). He recommends executing the oldimage migration, which was approved in 2017 as part of RFC T28741 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T28741.
