Bug #: 32789
Summary: Split hitcounter feature into an extension
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
We ship MediaWiki with a hitcounter feature. This feature basically makes an
update to the database on every page view just to count how many people have
viewed the page. And our default out-of-the-box settings have it enabled and
set to 1 so that every single page view makes the most inefficient possible
update.
Frankly I can't believe we ship MediaWiki with a feature of minimal use that
reduces the wiki's performance.
This feature sounds perfect to split out into an extension for those who want
it.
