Bug ID: 54037
Summary: ForeignAPIRepo / InstantCommons should fetch
multiple-density thumbnails in one request
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: File management
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: br...@wikimedia.org
CC: bawolff...@gmail.com, bryan.tongm...@gmail.com,

Depends on: 54035
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
To support high-density displays, we generate or fetch media thumbnails at
three resolutions: standard 1x, 1.5x, and 2.0x density.
When going over InstantCommons, this currently requires us to make three
separate thumbnail lookups over the internet, which are done in serial and can
product quite some latency.
If support for requesting multiple thumbnail sizes at once is added to the
imageinfo API (bug 54035), we should be able to use that in ForeignAPIRepo (aka
'InstantCommons') to fetch the URLs for the three densities in one HTTP
request. This would reduce the round-trip time for third-party users of
InstantCommons.
