BTW, Wikipedia is unuseable since about two hours, but you all know that.
??? I don't. Works fine for me, both on Larousse and Pliny.
Hmm, the server didn't respond many times (more than usual), and I had to wait for ages for the other pages. Maybe a provider problem, but I had the impression others had the same problems after looking at the German RecentChanges. English Wikipedia was also slow to me, but I didn't look at rc.
The version running on test.wiki has some performance tweaks that should help, as soon as that's properly tested it will go live on all wikis.
Great!
I still think we should disable all sysop queries because there have been runaway queries several times that bogged the wiki down for hours. Maybe I should just do it while Brion is away :)
Meinen Segen hast Du. ("you got my blessings", proper English translation?)
Or could we host one of the bigger wikis at ibiblio until we have another server (which will be very very soon, of course, but you never know ...)
I don't think it's as urgent as you say -- since Brion turned the fulltext search off on en:, I had pretty decent speed whenever I used wiki.
Hmm, I had much of variation the last days. And I wouldn't want to miss the fulltext search on the German 'pedia. This should only be an interim solution.
