Just a note: on an overall basis, the traffic for the
English wikipedia
is about the same as all the others combined. If we could get the
processor upgrade for larousse actually in place, well that would be
great. Since that doesn't seem to be forthcoming, alternatively, we
could move some of the languages to larousse and put English on pliny
only.
Actually, Jason has a new machine built which I'm giving to Wikipedia.
It's apparently stable and all, and he offered to drive it down today,
but I figured he could wait a bit until he has other reasons to go
down (which he will, soon, since I've ordered some parts and a new
server for Bomis, etc.).
So within a week or two, Wikipedia will be getting a new server as a
Christmas gift from Bomis. Not a mondo powerhouse, but perfectly
decent.
