I usually connect myself at night, so perhaps I do not really realise how horribly things are.
But, being there this afternoon, I wonder.
Is it every day just stuck like this ? I mean, it does not answer at all anymore.
(and no Mav, it is not me).
Anything else that we can disconnect ? Perhaps wikipedia could be made read only 12 hours a day, and write the other twelve. Somehow, read only is better than nothing. The english one is still usable. The french is just dead.
I am sure you are trying your best, but euh, well, anything else we can do ? A site not working at all during day hours is just not worth it :-((
Bien emb�t�e

Should be a little happier now. We're still getting that memory leak thing it seems, I've restarted the server again.
I've also temporarily blocked the bot that's been posting year pages to the German wiki every 30 seconds.

Bad day for wikipedia - the first suggestion to make a wiki (partially) read-only :-(
Perhaps one should reconsider setting the national wikipedias free meaning to encourage them to find a host in their country. That would at least give them some space for growth. The performance issue is going on for too long now and I for one stopped editing wikipedia because it is too frustrating at the moment.
