Deployed yesterday *** Experimenting with pagelib to improve mobile-html pageload https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T231201 ** Mobile-html *** Fixed srcset in media-list endpoint *** WIP: updating footer style ** Maps *** Investigated OSM DB bug, but results inconclusive ** Machine vision middleware *** Could be (optimistically) code-complete by EOW for DBA, Performance pre-deployment reviews *** Planning JS frontend integration ** Data Engineering *** Specified identifiers for event platform clients *** Specified sampling functions for event platform clients ==== Structured Data ==== * Updates: ** working on getting structured data in campaigns ready for WLM ==== Parsing ==== * Updates: ** Parsoid/PHP testing: *** Parser tests almost 100% green now (barring some insignificant key-value ordering differences in JSON blobs which we need to normalize to reduce this false positives). *** We have got our first runs of Parsoid/PHP round trip tests running scandium. We still have some crashers to fix and more bugs to fix from that initial test run. ** Performance-wise, after Tim's initial work tweaking some things in Parsoid, here is a rough performance update for test runs on scandium. We need real perf. benchmarking to get a more robust sense of where we are. *** Parsoid/PHP w2html: **** On large pages (like en:Barack_Obama), 1.5x slower than Parsoid/JS. But, most of that seems to be GC issues (both PHP7.2 and Parsoid/PHP). See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230861 for details **** On medium and smaller pages, as fast as or upto 2x faster than Parsoid/JS in some cases which is a pretty good result. *** Parsoid/PHP html2wt (impacts VE and CX): **** On large DOMs (like en:Barack_Obama), >2x slower than Parsoid/JS. But, on slightly smaller DOMs (like en:Berlin), < 10% slower. So, we seem to be getting non-linear slowdown as the pages get larger. **** Needs additional testing on medium and smaller sized pages. **** Note that in production usage, we will be using a more efficient version of html -> wt. But, this slowdown is still a reliable indicator of where we need to focus our performance work. ** Other Parsoid/PHP updates: *** Working with core platform team on RESTBase - Parsoid/PHP integration testing. == Technology == === Analytics === * Blocking: ** Search Platform - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T229882 === Fundraising Tech === * Updates: ** Large-scale testing of India payments form ** Prepping new CiviCRM point upgrade with more of our local hacks upstreamed or turned into proper extensions: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228826 ** Importing more donor data into CiviCRM: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228715 ** Fixes for one-time->recurring conversion ask: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228162 ** Deploying new Eventlogging-based pipeline for landing page and CentralNotice data *** Fixing issues with sending events from both sources: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T231406, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T231404 ** Payments form layout and text changes: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T169795, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T224063 ** Almost ready to deploy python3 upgrade to fundraising python tools: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T197805 === Core Platform === * Blocked by: ** Site Reliability Engineering: Investigate Kask request latency https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T229697 * Blocking: ** Search Platform: RecentChange support for SDC: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230862 ** Release Engineering: MediaWiki installer silently ignores invalid extensions https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T225512 ** Performance: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/core/+/394430/ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230800 (triaged by Daniel and Brad a week ago?) * Updates: ** Kask performance issue ** Parsoid/PHP last routes ** Core REST API routes in MediaWiki ** Action API integration testing === Engineering Productivity === ==== Performance ==== * Blocked by: ** WMDE/Wikidata: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/core/+/497537/ ** Core Platform: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/core/+/394430/ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230800 (triaged by Daniel and Brad a week ago?) * Updates: ** resourceloader: New Grafana dashboard providing insight into JS startup cost for extensions. – https://grafana.wikimedia.org/d/BvWJlaDWk/startup-module-size ==== Release Engineering ==== * Blocked by: ** Core Platform Team: MediaWiki installer silently ignores invalid extensions https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T225512 * Updates: ** REMINDER: We're at 1.34.0-wmf.20 this week.
