After upgrading my 1.12.0 version to 1.12.1 version everything broke with amazing server
overloads...
I see that the 1.12.1 patch file includes changes to how mediawiki uses memcached and this
changed destroyed the site I am over... Any time I tried to bring up the site all the
apache processes start flowing in and the frontend webservers hit about 30 load (Linux
terms) in less than 2 minutes...
I use APC and memcached and have not had an issue with previous upgrades (from 1.9 to now
1.12 currently). But the 1.12.1 upgrade was fine in my staging enviornment and everything
worked. But once I put into production and it got a good load... It blew up and would no
longer respond. No other upgrades happened during this time. PHP is the same, mysql is
the same and so is apache... The only thing I changed was the mediawiki version...
I got around this issue by reverting back to 1.12.0 which I did not want to do with the
current security patch that is out there...
Can anyone help me out with this?
Thanks
