--- Comment #25 from Andrew Garrett <[email protected]> 2009-07-05 19:19:34 UTC --- (In reply to comment #23) > It seems that the issue is that the linktable updates that trigger cascading > protection run through the job queue and are thus potentially delayed if the > job queue is long. The solution, therefore, is to ensure that the > templatelinks and imagelinks tables are updated quickly after a > cascade-protected page is updated. > > IIRC someone (Tim?) is working on an improved job queue construction; as > suggested in comment#12, a 'priority stream' should be considered in that > system. In the meantime (and perhaps even regardless), it would seem to be > sensible to update these tables *immediately* as part of the page save, if the > page is cascade-protected. Since only admins can save cascade-protected > pages, > this whould not be a DoS vector. Requires serious rearchitecture, which is not justified by a minor problem for which a basic workaround exists. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
