see some interruptions of the dumps while I get these hosts ready for
the switch. As a side effect of one of the configuration changes, the
host running the "large-ish" wikis is temporarily not running any jobs.
I should be starting those jobs again on Moday. The four "small wiki"
processes should be ok.
When we get around to the actual deployment, I will likely stop all jobs
til deployment is complete, as I cannot begin to guess what the output
would look like if the codebase were switched out underneath the dumpers
in the middle of a run.

PHP loads the files once, so given that all of them are likely to be
loaded in the first revisions, it would be like running the whole dump
with the old files. There could be some mismatch if several runners
wwere on different versions, but that seems unlikely since the output is
the same.
