I found your post very helpful for a status update of the current situation. The lag has a huge effect on the WP 1.0 bot that is used to track article assessments on enwiki, and which has a large user database as well. > Thyme finished processing the updates in the second block a few hours > ago, but the replag is continuing to increase.

Just to see if it makes any difference I killed the running WP 1.0 process on thyme. Right now the replag seems to be decreasing at a tiny rate, less than 10 minutes per hour. There are 411 hours of replag. For what it's worth, I would personally prefer a short complete outage (or make the server read-only) if that would leave us with no replag, rather than waiting for weeks or months while the replag slowly decreases. - Carl _______________________________________________ Toolserver-l mailing list ([email protected]) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/toolserver-l Posting guidelines for this list: https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mailing_list_etiquette
