Rsync of xml/sql dumps to the web server is now running on a rolling basis
via a script, so you should see updates regularly rather than "every
$random hours". There's more to be done on that front, see
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T179857 for what's next.

These jobs are currently written uncompressed. Starting with the next run,
I plan to write these as gzip compressed files. This means that we'll save
a lot of space for the larger abstracts dumps. Additionally,only status and
html files will be uncompressed, which is convenient for maintenance
