Hi, I saw a high load (dozens of queries [1]) hitting one of my tools (catscan2). The queries looked like they came from a template on French Wikipedia (category name different, other parameters the same). Access log shows (among other things) Google bot. When I added that to my bot exclusion list in .lighttpd.conf and restated, the number of queries went, and so far stayed, down.
I vaguely remember that indexing bots (like the Google one) were filtered out by Labs already? If it does, was that query drop random then? Cheers, Magnus [1] https://tools.wmflabs.org//catscan2/server-status
