Hi Emilio,

You're probably aware of it, but one way to handle your own installs is to
use virtual environments: https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/

BTW, the Python utilities you pointed to is now deprecated in favour of a
newer version, but the newer version is Python 3.x only:
http://pythonhosted.org/mediawiki-utilities/

I have the older version of his utilities installed in my virtual
environment. When I processed the English dump about a month ago I used
tools-dev for testing and then submitted jobs to the job servers when it
was ready, running over the smaller split files of the dump for
parallelisation and less memory usage.

>From what I've heard the newer library is considerably faster than the 2.x
version, but I haven't yet had a project where I could test that.


Regards,
Morten
