Great. What's the plan for those squids? Will
they only be used for
fr.wikipedia or also for de, it, pl and other european languages?
They are getting de as well currently, Kate and Mark are testing it.
#mediawiki is the place to follow the progress as it happens ;-)
The French squids are currently serving fr.wikt, fr.wp and de.wp for
French and German IPs. upload.wm and commons.wm DNS has been changed but
due to a longer TTL (1 day) not much load from there is hitting them yet.
CPU load at the moment is around 80-90%, so it seems unlikely we'll be
able to put en: there while maintaining a reasonable response time, but it
may be feasible to move some of the other European languages. Current
network usage is about 600Kbytes/sec, so that seems not to be an issue,
however a configuration issue with Ganglia makes accurate monitoring a
little harder.
The DNS is currently hosted offsite by
blitzed.org, but will move to our
servers once we have it set up and working. Due to being down 1 squid in
Florida I was rather quicker to move some traffic ASAP without having to
set things up here.
Kate.
(Update: We're about to move nl over, and redirect traffic from .be and .ch
to the French servers.)
