Hello, I was wondering how the decision is reached to
split enwiki pages-meta-history into, say, N XML files. How is N determined? Is it based
on something like "let's try to have X many pages per XML file" or "Y
many revisions per XML file" or trying to keep the size (GB) of each XML file roughly
equivalent? Or is N just an arbitrary number chosen because it sounds nice? :)
We have N = 27 because more than that overloads the cpus on the box with
the result that we wind up with a pile of truncated files.
We guess at the number of pages to go into each file hoping to get
roughly the same execution time to produce each piece.
