Daniel - there are two copies of enwiki-p; see [1] for details.  If you
need access to any database whose name starts with "u_" or "p_", you
need the sql-s1-user copy.  If you *don't* need access to those
databases, you ought be using the sql-s1-rr copy and you are degrading
the performance of your application if you don't.

The address "enwiki-p.db.toolserver.org" points to the sql-s1-user copy,
and is deprecated; you ought to be using either
"enwiki-p.rrdb.toolserver.org" or "enwiki-p.userdb.toolserver.org"
instead.
