--- Comment #5 from MZMcBride <b...@mzmcbride.com> --- I should have replied more directly initially. Let me try again.

"Unconditionally" seems like a strange wording choice here. It's behind the $wgMiserMode configuration variable now, as far as I can tell. That's not unconditional, that's the opposite. By default, $wgMiserMode is false, so any small wiki will presumably be completely unaffected by this change, I think. Am I misunderstanding or mistaken? Wikimedia wikis are affected because all Wikimedia wikis set $wgMiserMode to true, regardless of wiki size. A bit of searching reminded me of bug 46098, of course.

Is someone working on making it more efficient? There should be a bug about making Special:ActiveUsers efficient enough (similar to bug 10593). There should also be a bug about ultimately killing $wgMiserMode. I consider it a hack. I don't think we should encourage second-class features. We should either support the features fully in core, kill them, or put them into an extension. I'm not sure either of these bugs exist yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
