It does cache the full fallback chain, but en is not part of the fallback chain. fit falls back on fi, and fi has no fallback. What happens is that if the message cannot be found anywhere in the requested language, it proceeds to check the site language. Here is the exact process: 1) Check the database for the requested language 2) Check the CDB cache for the requested language (which includes fallbacks) 3) Check the database for each of the requested language fallbacks 4) Check the database for the site language 5) Check the CDB cache for the site language (which includes fallbacks) 6) Check the database for the site language fallbacks And here is the process as proposed by the patch: For each language in a list of the requested language and its fallbacks followed by the site language and its fallbacks: 1) Check the database for that language 2) Check the CDB cache for that language Note: the actual implementation is a bit different since the CDB cache is only checked once, but it has that effect. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
