- quite a few sleeps are because of a server-error-retry cycle. some of these are also dubious in core, as the http and api layer have already retried the request; but e.g. the flickr api code does sleep-retry, which is appropriate because it doesnt use the api layer. - weblinkchecker.py does some very small sleeps while spinning down the threads - checkimages.py has a sleep argument -time: to slow down the bot - replace.py has a sleep argument -sleep: to slow down the bot between regex on each page? Quite odd : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/rPWBO9d415671b3eb728fbb8929f5cf1cfce0bd1cfc39 - clean_sandbox.py and welcome.py has a sleep between bot runs - i.e. a delay before restarting the process again, which is effectively waiting for humans to do stuff TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T104046 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: jayvdb Cc: Xqt, Ricordisamoa, Ladsgroup, jayvdb, Aklapper, whym, pywikibot-bugs-list, Malyacko, P.Copp _______________________________________________ pywikibot-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikibot-bugs
